    Color Basics

    Learn how color works and how it affects the look and feel of a space.

    Color Wheel 

    Color affects how rooms look and feel and can actually affect our sense of space. In general, dark colors make large spaces feel cozy, while light colors make small spaces feel larger.

    When choosing colors, pick ones that inspire you. Your favorite pillow, vase or even nail polish can be your wall color. Of course, your True Value Certified Color Expert® can match paint to any color in your home.
