CIL Paints provides tips on newest concept in home décor -- destination painting

The options are endless, says Alison Goldman, Marketing Communications Manager for CIL. "Studies show that the colours we surround ourselves with have a direct effect on our state of mind," she said. "If you feel the need to get away but just can't do it for whatever reason, painting your walls in colours representative of your dream destination will give you that same sense of relaxation or excitement you long for, without having to leave home to get it." Getting started is simple, explains Goldman. Begin by collecting photos of your favourite destinations from magazines, travel brochures or websites. Take the time to examine the pictures and ask yourself: What is it about this destination that makes me want to go there? You will begin to notice colour schemes that repeat themselves in the photos you select. Pay attention to the feelings those colours evoke within you. - Brazil : With Rio de Janeiro hosting the 2014 Soccer World Cup and 2016 Summer Olympics, Brazil - with its sunny beaches, outdoor cafés and lively entertainment - is a current hot spot. Bring the excitement of the country into your home with a Brazilian-themed room featuring a mix of yellow, deep red, golden brown and orange, along with studded furniture and beaded lamps. A good place to start is by painting three of your walls with CIL's Del Sol (21YY 60/577) yellow and the fourth wall with Burnt Pumpkin (24YR 12/447) red. Use the remaining colours in throw pillows and ceramic accessories. - Sweden: Stockholm - featuring winding cobbled streets, steamboat rides and rooftop tours - is one of the most popular European cities to visit today, thanks to the popularity of author Stieg Larsson and his Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series. Recreate the Swedish feel in your home by combining shades of bright peacock blue, lemon yellow and grey. Accent your room with traditional Nordic-style accessories, such as hanging wooden fish, cone-shaped oil lamps and copper vases. If it's Sweden's baroque style royal palaces that attract you, try imitating the look in a small space like a powder room by mixing pastel green with soft coral pink. - Costa Rica : Looking for a more laid back atmosphere filled with reggae music, spicy food and tropical heat? Recreate the white sandy beaches of Costa Rica's newest hot spot: Puerto Viejo.
