Moreover if we match it with white, it softens its brilliance and with some grey tones creates a very refined and modern setting; with brown shades and natural wood makes the settings cozier.
Red has a wide range’s variants from carmine to vermilion, crimson or purple. Each color expresses its own energy and warmth.
According to chromotherapy, red has the power of increasing blood pressure , respiratory rate and stimulating hunger . In order to wish prosperity to the people who is living in their houses , Feng Shui suggests to paint your doorway in red.
