Feng Shui Colors: How to Pick the Right Color for Each Part of Your Home

According to experts, using the right feng shui colors can provide numerous benefits for your home.

About Home states that each color brings certain feng shui energies to your space, so it's important that you know which ones to use in each part of your home. Here are some tips.

Yellow for kitchen, living room and children's rooms

According to the aforementioned website, the color yellow instantly brightens up a space and produces welcoming feng shui energy. It is therefore best to use it for the areas where you entertain guests such as the living room and the kitchen. It's also appropriate for children's rooms because it creates a cheerful and uplifting mood.

Red for the master's bedroom

Red is said to be the strongest feng shui color and represents the element fire. According to the site, the color enhances sexual desire and brings joy and excitement to your space. Therefore, it's best to use it in the master's bedroom to help create the right energy between you and your husband or wife and to keep the flame of your love burning.

Green for office space/workstation or gym

According to mbg, the color green represents the wood element in feng shui and "promotes change, growth and flexibility." The site says that the color can inspire creativity, so it's best to use it in areas in your home where you need to be productive, such as an office or workstation. Green can reportedly also promote healing, so it can also be used in gym, yoga rooms, or workout spaces.

Violet for meditation rooms

According to the same site, violet denotes wealth in feng shui and is not a social color like yellow. It's therefore best to use it in the far corner of your home, as far away as the entrance as possible.
