The drawing room is the place in the house where guests are welcomed, and family members spend time together. Especially in today's flat culture, most of the time is spent in the drawing room. According to Vastu Shastra, this is the area where positive energy flows. Thus, the colours you select for your drawing room may affect your mental peace, relationships, or even financial condition. As per Vastu, correct colours enhance positive energy, while incorrect colours attract negativity.

Which colours should be avoided?
Black or very dark grey
According to Vastu, black absorbs positive energy and increases negativity. It can make the mind heavy and gloomy, creating distance in relationships.
Dark red or deep orange
Though bright, overly dark shades increase anger, restlessness, and agitation, disturbing the calm environment of the room.
Purple or deep blue
The excessively deep purple or blue can make a person feel melancholic. In smaller rooms, these colours make the space look closed and cramped.
