Colour has a profound influence on space and the people in it. Warm colours add energy to the room, while colder ones give the room a more soothing effect. It influences human emotions and the ambience on a day-to-day basis as well. Choosing the right colour for the rooms can be a daunting task, but it helps to know which colour will be your primary colour, and then you can amp it up with the colours that go well with it.
Neutral colours are better than primary colours because it brings a calming and soothing effect as well as structure to the house. Colours like pista green symbolise new beginnings, energy, and abundance. The Pista colour, a shade of green, creates an environment of relaxation and contentment. It is best paired with white, blue, and pink, but it can also be paired with several shades.
Different ways you can paint your rooms with a pista green colour
Pista colour: Painting the exteriors
The pista colour casts the look of leaves casting a shadow on the building. The colours that will contrast pista colour should be decided according to the colour of the neighbouring houses and the greenery around them. Pista green paired with white, grey, black, or mustard yellow in definite proportions reflects light and makes the house look larger. Pista green helps bring positivity to the home and looks neater than the other colours.

Pista colour: Interiors
For the house’s interiors, the pista colour is a unique choice. The pistachio colour in the interior benefits the psyche and soothes and harmonises the house’s energy. It can be chosen as the primary background colour, with white or black as its sidekick, which gives it a modern look. It can also be paired with brown, red, or peach in proportions to provide an aesthetic appeal.
Pista green with golden or warmer lights gives a classy look to the rooms. Furniture with a rustic brown finish complements the room. Pista green can also be paired with different shades of green in curtains or other pieces of furniture in the room to make the room look together.

Pista colour: Living room
Pista green gives the living room a summer environment. The bright-coloured living room accessories, like red and blue sofa, cabinets, showpieces, and wall hangers, well contrasted with the pista green walls, adds an interesting character to the space. Pairing this green with white adds and reflects light to the otherwise neutral room. The solid-coloured wall also pairs well with textured furniture like cushions and rugs. The ceiling, coloured in white or ivory, also makes it edgy.

Pista colour: Bedroom
Some colours create a certain distinct and reassuring effect on the style of the space. The pista green gives that effect in bedrooms. It is better at evoking certain emotions and moods. It is the perfect pop for the walls—white and grey walls or ceilings complete the room.
If the bedroom extends to a dressing room, it can be paired with other shades of green, like sage green and emerald green, or warmer colours, like yellow or salmon. Wooden flooring complements the room with green undertones. A bedroom with natural light makes the green pop and look bright.

Pista colour: Kitchen
The kitchen is an area that generally has a warmer temperature than the other rooms because of the constant heat. Painting the walls with pista colour gives it a fresh and airy look. With white and light wood accents in the furniture, pista green goes well.
For smaller kitchens, this colour can be added on either a door or cabinet and can be contrasted with lighter colours. For a little more spacious kitchen, contrast it with darker colours like brown or dark grey shades to give it a more cohesive and structured look.

Pista colour: Study room
Colours play an essential role in elevating mood, and choosing the right colour for the study room for study or work purposes is essential to have a productive day. Pastel or light colours are great for increasing concentration. Pista green paired with white spruces up the room without making it look clumsy.
Pair it with accessories of white and golden such as a study table or other stationary items. Brown or wooden chairs or a peach or mild orange touch also elevates the room. Adding plants also helps to bring in more oxygen to the room and rejuvenates the body for better energy.

Pista colour: Balcony
Lastly, adding pista green to balconies is a stylish and bold choice. Lighter colours are always preferred for balconies as it allows you to blend with the greenery and wood outside your home and makes the balcony one amidst nature. Add wooden chairs to give an excellent texture to it. Have warmer and brighter coloured pots and vases for the plants on the balcony, and prefer flower-bearing plants to make the balcony vibrant. You can also add a beige rug or brown ottoman to make the balcony more comfortable for setting.
