How To Choose The Best Colours For Your Loft

At Taylor’d Loft Conversions, we aim to create a unique and stylish loft at your expectation.

In this blog, we would like to share a few ways to help you choose the best colours for your loft.

1. Match the colour scheme with style 

It’s important to know the kind of style you wish to adapt to before selecting the colours for your loft. For example, a rich/luxury style would normally use gold, black and white colours. A modern or a contemporary style can be either very simple and neutral or bold and dynamic.

 2. Keep colours to a minimum 

It’s important not to over do the colours, as they say “less is more” is the most effective way to stand out. That doesn’t mean you should restrict yourself on the type of colours you choose, i.e. if the room already has white as the base colour you could consider adding one or two other colours to balance it out. For example, if you are using the room as a children play area you could add some bright colours such as yellow, blue to lighten up the mood.

3. Decide the mood/atmosphere you want to set 

Before choosing the colours, you need to think the mood you want to create when others enter the room.  For example, you might want people to feel welcomed and appreciated in your dining room. If you want a fun and cheerful atmosphere, you would consider selecting bright and warm colours. Therefore, choose the colours that brings out the feeling you want to create.

4. Location of the room 

The location is important as this will affect the colours you use in the room, depending whether the room is facing south or north. For example, if the room is facing away from the sunlight you could consider selecting warmer colours to balance the brightness of the room.
