It’s no secret that lighter colours reflect more light and absorb less heat while dark colours absorb both light and heat. As a result, a room with light colour walls will need less artificial light than a room with dark coloured walls. In order to strike the right balance throughout both warm and the cold seasons, it is beneficial to use light colours for walls and dark colours for furniture.
