----COLOR In The Home - Is Your Color Right For The Room?
Heaven gives us of its color, for our joy, Hues which have words and speak to ye of heaven.
Although the very existence of a house is a matter of construction, its general interior effect is almost entirely the result of color treatment and careful and cultivated selection of accessories.
Color in the house includes much that means furniture, in the way of carpets, draperies, and all the modern conveniences of civilization, but as it precedes and dictates the variety of all these things from the authoritative standpoint of wall treatment, it is well to study its laws and try to reap the full benefit of its influence.
As far as effect is concerned, the color of a room creates its atmosphere. It may be cheerful or sad, cozy or repellent according to its quality or force. Without color it is only a bare canvas, which might, but does not picture our lives.
We understand many of the properties of color, and have unconsciously learned some of its laws; but what may be called the science of color has never been formulated. So far as we understand it, its principles correspond curiously to those of melodious sound. It is as impossible to produce the best effect from one tone or color, as to make a melody upon one note of the harmonic scale; it is skilful variation of tone, the gradation or even judicious opposition of tint which gives exquisite satisfaction to the eye. In music, sequence produces this effect upon the ear, and in color, juxtaposition and gradation upon the eye. Notes follow notes in melody as shade follows shade in color. We find no need of even different names for the qualities peculiar to the two; scale-notes-tones-harmonies the words express effects common to color as well as to music, but color has this advantage, that its harmonies can be fixed, they do not die with the passing moment; once expressed they remain as a constant and ever-present delight.
Until very recently the relation of color to the beauty of a house interior was quite unrecognized. If it existed in any degree of perfection it was an accident, a result of the softening and beautifying effect of time, or of harmonious human living. Where it existed, it was felt as a mysterious charm belonging to the home; something which pervaded it, but had no separate being; an attractive ghost which attached itself to certain houses, followed certain people, came by chance, and was a mystery which no one understood, but every one acknowledged. Now we know that this something which distinguished particular rooms, and made beautiful particular houses, was a definite result of laws of color accidentally applied.
