Japanese Kawaii Culture
Happy/Kawaii bedroom paint styles?
I’m a 16 year old male and I’ve come to the conclusion that my room gives off an unhappy aura. Life seems boring lately my room is the place I spent thr most time I so I think it should male me happy. Right now I have a grey-blue color paint scheme. I’ve been listening to a lot of Japanese music lately and it makes me happy and their kawaii “cute” culture fascinates me. I want a bright room that makes me smile when I look around.
I was thinking a bright color and a mural painted on one wall by me and my friend. Yellow could work idk..
Any ideas would be appreciated. If it helps, I have black bed, dresser, etc. as well as curtains but those could be changed.
THANKS ^_^
Blues don’t always have to give off depressing moods. Actually, the color you described sounds like the color I’m going to do my bedroom, but i’m going to add white molding to the top of the wall and bottom, plus add splashes of orangy-reds and maybe some greens to make it more like an island oasis look.
If you absolutely want to change your paint color, maybe just look at some tattoos (easiest search) of Japanese-inspired artwork, including Koi fish, lotus etc. The colors are vibrant blues, reds, oranges but also incorporates the grayscale which might work with your already dark furniture. Just off the top of my head, i’d suggest a teal color (blue-green) kind of like the ocean, and your mural which you might want to put behind the center of your bed (like an extension of your headboard) or perhaps going alongside the wall of the entrance to your door could be red flowers (something abstract, of course, since you’re a guy). If you want to spend the loot, i’m sure you could even find a cherry blossom tree mural already done which incorporates white and red/pink but I don’t know if that’s too girly. If so, consider the lotus.
I think bright yellow is too feminine for a young man unless it’s more of a spicy mustardy yellow, but that’s my own opinion and you could honestly paint your room pink if you want to
.
I think teal is a good start though. Loads of complimentary colors and possibilities.
