Color Recommendations from Polisan Kansai Boya

Color Recommendations from Polisan Kansai Boya Nur Azade Yazgan, Marketing and Channel Strategy Director at Polisan Kansai Boya, offered consumers recommendations on color selection. Yazgan emphasized that light and neutral tones should be used especially in small rooms for a bright appearance. Yazgan stated: "Light colors—white, cream, light blue and green—make a space appear larger and airier than it actually is, but contrary to popular belief, dark colors can also be an excellent choice when used correctly and supported by additional light sources such as floor lamps and table lamps alongside ceiling fixtures."

Creating a Warm and Intimate Atmosphere with Colors

Yazgan noted that three-dimensional effects and visual illusions can be created by using different colors together on walls. Yazgan recommended: "Using different colors in combination, as well as applications such as vertical stripes, can create a perception of greater width and height in small rooms. Color combinations such as grey-yellow, saffron yellow-green, and red-anthracite grey can be used together on walls, and these same colors can be incorporated into furniture selections to create a warm and intimate atmosphere." In her statement, Yazgan also addressed the question "Should matte or glossy paint be used?" Offering recommendations on this topic, Yazgan stated that the choice between matte or glossy paint does not have a significant impact. Yazgan said: "The choice between matte and glossy can be considered a matter of preference. Functional benefits should also be taken into account. Since matte paints better minimize surface imperfections, interest in matte and soft matte paints has increased in recent times."
