2. Use more subtle colors in a large open space and play it bold in smaller rooms.
3. Warm colors seem to come towards you and they make rooms feel cozy but smaller.
4. Cool colors seem to recede and appear to create a sense of space.
5. There is nothing wrong with setting a neutral background and adding color little by little as you get more comfortable with your color decisions.
6. Make sure your color scheme works both in natural and artificial light.
