How to Choose the Right Paint Colours for Your Home in Delhi NCR
Expert guide to choosing paint colours for your Delhi NCR home. Consider lighting, room size, and climate for perfect colour palette.
Paint colours can transform your home. Here is how to choose right colours for Delhi NCR homes.
Consider Delhi NCR Climate:
- Hot summers (up to 45°C): Light colours reflect heat. Whites, creams, pastels keep rooms cooler.
- Dust: Avoid very light colours that show dust easily. Eggshell and satin finishes are practical.
- Monsoon humidity: Use mould-resistant paints in bathrooms and kitchens.
Room-by-Room Guide:
Living Room — Warm neutrals (beige, warm grey, off-white) with accent wall in deep blue or terracotta.
Bedroom — Calming colours: Light blue, sage green, lavender. Avoid reds and bright oranges.
Kitchen — Bright and clean: White, pale yellow, light grey. Easy-clean matt finish.
Bathroom — Cool colours: Aqua, light grey, white. Use waterproof paint.
Kids Room — Fun colours: Mint green, peach, light yellow with chalkboard accent wall.
Popular Brands: Asian Paints (Royale Play for texture, Apcolite for exteriors), Berger (WeatherCoat for exteriors, Luxor for interiors).
Budget: ₹15-₹30 per sq ft for good quality paint with primer.
Colour Psychology:
- Blue: Calming, good for bedrooms
- Green: Natural, good for living areas
- Yellow: Energetic, good for kitchen/dining
- Grey: Modern, good for contemporary homes
