When picking interior decor or design for a home, office, retail, or investment property, many people or companies like to press upon themes for their interior decor. One would say, I really like palm trees or very exotic things. All of a sudden, their interior space is a homage to African art, dark wood furniture, plastic palm tree plants, and other Bombay like accessories. People often forget that these accessories, furniture, and the like are merely enhancements to the interior space. What people don’t realise is that there is an automatic psychological feel that floods a persons mind when they walk into any room. It is colour.
In interior design, colour varies in many cultures in regards to a psychological definition. Red has been a colour of sensuality, an awakening of sexual appetite and has a very strong sense of energy. Black and gray have been found to be a colour of stability; often balancing out moods or other attributes of an interior space. Some blues evoke a strong sense of calm or clarity and wisdom. Greens often represent nature in one’s mind and bring a sense of calm to a person. White of course has always represented purity in a world-wide consensus and in regards to interior design gives a very clear and simplistic look to an interior space.
Tip 003: Rowat & Gray advises you pick a mood or a feeling you want for a room by colour first and then add your themes, accessories, or furnishings to your interior space.
We here at Rowat & Gray Interiors believe to envoke a mood or feeling for your home, product, retail shop, or business takes a simple psychological effort… add that colour! Capturing one’s mind by a mood or feeling leaves a lasting impression. If you’re looking for a relaxing room, why not try a stable gray or calming blue. If you’re looking for a room that sparks interest or needs vibrant energy, try those red or yellow shades. Remember your interior space is what defines you.

Rowat & Gray Interiors, as highly inappropriate or unprofessional this may be, would like to say, probably the greatest legendary pop icon of our time has now been laid to rest: Mr. Michael Jackson… and we’re feeling a little sappy, soppy, poo. So for all of you who remember Thriller, Billy Jean, and can even go back as far as ABC, take a moment to reminisce how you practiced dance moves in your living room watching MJ’s videos, sang along to Billy Jean never fully realizing the song was about him knocking up some chic, and how you craved a Thriller replica red leather jacket… or hey, maybe that was just me.
