As the days keep getting shorter and sunlight becomes a precious commodity, seasonal affective disorder, also known as SAD or winter blues, creeps up on many of us. But while you can’t do much about the absence of natural light, it turns out you can combat SAD with strategic use of paint colours in your home.
This syndrome is more common than you might think as one in 20 people in the UK become affected every winter. And while there are certainly shades and colour palettes to go for, there are also trendy colours that you should avoid if you are prone to depression or SAD. One thing to skip on is colour drenching in popular autumnal dark and moody colours.
