would be if you were to wake up to this color every morning.

and collected when deciding to deliver a complaint in here.

Maritime blue. Ahoy there,
matey. No matter how far away your house may be from an ocean, you'll
almost be able to hear waves lapping the shoreline in a bedroom
showcasing this powerful, nature-inspired tone.

gray.

Taking things to "gray-t" heights.
Gray is a go-to neutral because of its strong yet soothing nature.
This bedroom has not only an accent wall in this color, but an entire
ceiling.

Sophisticated brown. Brown
symbolizes orderliness, which is the sort of state any busy person
yearns for at night. Leave chaos at the door when you enter a room with a
brown accent wall.
