Want to choose the right interior style?which suits you? To do this, it is enough to find out what psychological type you belong to - red, orange, yellow or green. Doctor of science and experienced intuitive physician Carol Ritberger carried out painstaking work, during which she found out that there are four main personality colors that show how people behave in a given situation, how they solve problems and how they communicate with other people. Personality color directly affects what kind of interior a person prefers to live and work in, to feel most comfortable. Danila Gulyaev, consulting psychologist, narrative therapist: - Understanding what kind of home interior you need, referring yourself to a certain psychological type is a tempting idea. Probably, if you got acquainted with some typology, and you had a clear recognition - “oh, this is about me!”, then this may well be a guide for understanding what kind of interior you need. But there are two big questions here. Firstly, is it possible to reduce all the diversity of your personality to a certain type? Secondly, is the choice of interior necessarily determined by the “psychological type”? There are studies showing that we tend to exaggerate the influence of stable personality traits on our choices. In addition to traits and types, there are other guidelines that can help when planning your home. In particular, each of us has an idea of ourselves - an image of ourselves, ideas about ourselves. Sometimes this is called a “self-concept”, sometimes a “self-image”. These ideas often have a greater influence on our lives than “objective” traits. How we imagine ourselves is how we feel and how we behave. For example, people who consider themselves confident most often behave confidently. daniling.com
1. Red personalities
This category of people can be characterized as follows:"If I want something, I will definitely achieve it." Reds are full of surprises, it is difficult to guess what is on their mind and what they expect from you. They divide the world into black and white. For them, the gaps are insignificant, there are only starting and ending points. Nevertheless, such individuals are ready to give 100 percent at work, are distinguished by determination and assertiveness. They can be good leaders, but they must control everything and everywhere. Luxurious classic interiors, art deco, minimalism or contemporary suit them best. They prefer everything expensive and high-quality, price for them fades into the background. The house should be extravagant, strict and refined to show the exclusivity of their taste. Preferred materials: leather, metal and exclusive wood species.

They are characterized by a warm, cozy interior in Scandinavian, Mediterranean or eco-style, as well as decoration in warm pastel colors. The use of natural stone and any types of wood should create comfort not only for orange people, but also for their guests.
3. Yellow personalities
"Do better than others" is the sloganis inherent to this type of people. Strong leaders and deep thinkers, they are used to solving problems that others cannot. Focusing on personal experience and high competence in completing tasks, they like to demonstrate the difference between their work and the work of others.

An integral part of the house of greens will be high-tech and environmentally friendly materials, as well as the latest developments in design and architecture. If you see a wind generator on the roof of a private house, then you can unmistakably determine the color of the owner's personality.
Danila Gulyaev, psychologist-consultant,Narrative therapist: — Home interior is, in a sense, an extension of the “self-concept”. It can reflect ideas about what kind of house I want to live in, how I see and feel myself. And also how I want to see and feel myself — planning a future home allows you to create and develop your preferred image. It is even possible that an interior built for your future self, as if “for growth”, can allow you to get closer internally to what you want to be. After all, the surrounding space affects both our feelings and behavior. This can be done in the form of a self-portrait in your future home — drawn or verbal. You can try to outline in detail: what am I like? what is around me? what does it look like? how do I want to feel there? This does not mean that you necessarily need to draw “castles in the air”, something fantastic. The preferred image of yourself is not necessarily ideal. It can be quite realistic — it simply takes into account the changes that you want to bring to your life, to your home. The same applies to the image of the family, if we are talking about the family hearth - after all, the family also has a "we-image" and a "we-concept" that can be brought into the arrangement of the future interior. For example, in the form of a collective family portrait in a common future home. daniling.com pinterest.com, stylebyemilyhenderson.com, geometrix.ru
