Beat Indian Summers with These Cooling Paint Colours

Graceful Greens

Let’s start with the most pleasing colour to the eye - green. This cool colour is easily associated with Mother Nature. Depending on the hue, greens can make you more cheery or calm you down.

The greenness in your house can make you feel like spending your entire summer vacation at home! Mimic the natural world around you by picking your favourite shades from the diverse wall painting palette of greens. Opt for a quintessential house paint shade like Brilliant Garnet (4390). If you wish to add a dash of cheery spring to your space, greens with a bit of yellow to them, like Green Rage (2643) or Starfruit (4427), can be the best idea. For people who wish to get a bit experimental and opt for modern wall painting colours, there are shades of teal such as Tansy (2480) and Emerald Forest (2524), shades of olive like Fernleaf (4419) and Golden Olive (2672), and shades of sea green such as Marina (4358) and Corsage (2516). If you wish to add a bit of art to your home walls, move beyond plain walls. Get inspired and put some patterns like velvets or crushed cotton on your bedroom and living room walls.

Blissful Blues

Nature possesses just as many serene blues as it does greens. Look at the clear blue ocean water or the mighty sky above. These hues create a sense of relaxation and playfulness at the same time, making them especially popular choices for bedrooms. Bottom line: blue synonyms with positivity of all kinds. So add more positivity to your space with enthralling blue walls.

Shades of aqua and pastels are ideal summer wall painting colours. You can use them strategically to paint all of your living room or bedroom walls. These charming shades work greatly for kitchens and home exteriors as well. Fans of bold and vibrant blues can opt for shades like cobalt, violet, and azure, something like Blue Sapphire (2411), Blue Blanket (4247), Velvet Diva (4223), Debonair (2371), and Olympian Blue (2392). A lot of people also opt for unusual shades of peacock and ocean that are different from the clichéd blues. If you don’t want deep-toned home interiors, limit these dark tints only for your accent walls and let the lighter shades dominate the ambience.

Mix blue living room walls with clear white lamps and bulbs to create a perfect chill-in-summer ambience. And why only living room, shades of blissful blues are apt for your bedrooms, study room, and even bathrooms!
