Here are some other ways color can compliment your life.

1. Use gray and blue to calm your teenager and enhance their ability to study.  Paint one wall gray. Using blue accents such as blue based prints, or bed treatments against the existing lighter colored walls, will give the room a smart look without seeming too dark or intense.
   
2. Younger children are less hyper in rooms that have soft blues and greens.
   
3. To promote warm feelings of friendly togetherness in your family room, choose earth toned reds, terracotta, rust, orange and peach tints. 
   
4. Use blue in your home office to enhance your ability to concentrate.  One wall or just an accent will do the trick.
