The Psychology of Color: What Your Home’s Palette Says About You

When you choose a color for your home, you’re doing more than picking what “looks nice.” Color quietly shapes how we feel, think, and behave in a space—often without us realizing it. From the calming blues of a bedroom to the energizing yellows in a kitchen, every hue sends a psychological signal to the brain. Understanding the psychology behind color can help you create a home that truly supports your mood, lifestyle, and emotional well-being.

Your entryway is more than a pass-through space—it’s the moment where the outside world fades and home begins. It’s the first impression for guests and the first feeling you experience when you walk through the door. Thoughtfully styling this space with Alan Claude’s artwork can instantly set the tone for the rest of your home, blending warmth, sophistication, and intentional design.

The Last Lightkeepers is a great visually stunning documentary about Lighthouse preservation that I am honored to be a part of.

 Maine Artist Alan Claude owns two of the buildings. Claude is well-known for his graphic artwork featuring Maine lighthouses and colorful coastal scenes. Claude plans to open a gallery and retail space and says he’s also excited to be part of the redevelopment downtown.

“There’s so much history here and I look forward to seeing the revival happen,” Claude said.
