VASTU TIPS ABOUT COLORS

1. Orange for Power

Orange symbolizes spirituality and power. So, brighter shades of orange are the good choice for bedroom accents rather than wall colors. As orange color invokes positive feelings and happiness, this is always a suitable shade for bedroom use.

2. Yellow for Wisdom

Yellows especially in gold tones work very well in an Indian bedroom. Yellow not only stands for patience and wisdom but also symbolizes sunlight.

3. Pink for Joy

Pink is a suitable color for bedroom walls. As the color symbolizes joy and happiness, any shade of pink is suitable for master bedrooms. According to Vastu, pink is the right color for South or Southwest facing bedrooms.

4. Purple for Faith

Fuschia or bold purple, works well for fabric accents in a bedroom. The color purple generally represents trust, respect and faith. You can use it in curtains, bedspreads and pillow, but avoid using them on walls as it has a tendency to overpower the room.

5. Blue for Growth

According Vastu principles, blue is considered as an appropriate color for bedrooms. Blue stands for new growth and relaxation and hence it is the right choice for bedrooms. Shades of blue works very well as wall colors and brings a relaxing environment in the bedroom. For fabric accents, turquoise works well through the bedroom interior.

6. Green for Hope

Green is appropriate for bedrooms as base color. Hues of green generally symbolize nature, hope and freshness and so they have the ability to rejuvenate the mind and body. For bedroom walls, especially in kid’s bedroom, light green or green-tinted shades give the room a healthy atmosphere.

7. Red for Bravery

Red should be used sparingly in the bedroom. As red is a symbol of bravery and power according to Vastu, the color holds a great deal of energy and stress. So, avoid bold uses of red for bedrooms. Instead, you can use warm, muted brownish reds for pillows and not for walls and curtains.

8. White for Intensity

White is not generally the color of Indian bedroom design, as people think it might get dirt easily. But, Vastu tradition suggests that brighter shades of white make appropriate colors for bedroom accents. You can use them for your bedroom ceilings which reflects light and helps your brighten the room.
