《THE POWER OF COLOR》
What are the best colors, for rooms your home?
We see color every wehre. It makes our world beautiful, but it can also affect our feelings and behavior.
For this reason, It is important to use the right colors in different rooms in a home. For example,
light colors -- like light blue, green, or purple --relax us.
They are perfect in a bedroom or living room.
Other colors —— like red, orange, and yellow - are different. They make us feel alert and sometimes hungry,
studies show. For this reason, they can be good to use in a dining area or a kitchen.
A room with some red, orange, or yellow can also feel happy and can be good in a living area.
But these colors are very strong, and it's best to only use a little of them .People feel nervous in rooms with too many dark or bright colors.
Other colors help us work or study.Many people think white walls and bright lights are best for this.But people are often uncomfortable in this kind of room.
It is hard to sit and think. Instead, use white with another color, especially light blue. This color relaxes people.In a home office or a room for studying,
light blue and white can help people think better.
1. If something affects you, It changes you in some way. 如果某件事影响了你,它会以某种方式改变你。
2. Your behavior is the way you act. 你的行为就是你的行为方式。
