Indoor Features to Create a Calming Atmosphere
Jan 7 2013
Most people spend a great deal of time in their homes. Therefore, it’s critical to consider the effect of various elements on the peaceful presentation of your home. Is it a place that is inviting to both the owner and guests? Is it a place to be proud of? Is it a good place to linger and spend valuable time in? Many things add to the overall atmosphere of any residence.
Clutter

Colors
The choice of colors tends to express who a person really is. Uniformity or natural blending of colors from one room to another is vital if the rooms are fairly open. It is natural to like many colors and want to select a variety of them. Too many colors within the walls of a house can also create an atmosphere of clutter. When the colors do not meet in accord, the abrupt change from one room to another will create a sense of brash and intense discord. This can be extremely unsettling.

Flowers
Flowers and essential oils made from flowers can benefit the atmosphere of any home. The essence of certain flowers will calm most people. Roses, lavender, jasmine and orange blossoms are especially nice flowers when used for decoration and their wonderful scent. These particular scents seem to have some positive impact on anxiety, depression and fatigue, thus providing a degree of pleasant relaxation. Planning a garden around decorating and creating a wonderful atmosphere within the home is an ideal way to bring the magnificent beauty of nature inside. Hanging baskets containing delicate flowers have a great visual impact on persons coming into the house. In addition, all can contribute to a variety of conversations.
Music
Soothing background music adds a peaceful dimension to a person's home. A quality sound system and well-placed speakers can be very appealing. Music tends to set the mood and embrace a variety of different feelings. Carefully chosen music has the ability to express what can be very difficult to express in words.
