Color has a big impact on our everyday lives – from what we decide to wear, to what we order for lunch. Just as important as choosing the right colors for our clothing, we all need to understand the effects various room colors can have on our mood and sense of well-being. This year, at the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show, designers Becky Harmon and Sandra Millis are creating a design
feature with side by side rooms that showcase both warm and cool colors. The display will feature beautiful flooring,
neutral colored seating, end and coffee tables,accent chest, wall art, area rugs and accessories.
The designers will use color to dictate the look and feel of the two rooms -- cool colors are thought to be calm and relaxing, while warm colors are often considered to be energetic.
The ladies are utilizing shades from Sherwin Williams. To help you get ready for their unique display at the show, below are some color findings from Sherwin Williams.
Color and Mood
How does hue affect mood and behavior? Science can offer clues, but the answers are rarely black and white.
To understand the impact of color on the human mind, consider the operating room, says Shashi Caan, chairwoman of the interior design program at Parsons School of Designer. Dominant colors in an operating theater don't come from the decor, she points out. They are the red of human blood and tissue and the seafoam green or blue-green of surgical scrubs.
Aesthetics aside, this color combination is unlikely to change. As long as blood is red, Caan says, the complementary colors of the scrubs will severe the important function of absorbing the surgeon's visual afterimage when she briefly looks away from her patient. If scrubs were, say, white like a doctor's lab coat, staring into all that crimson without a visual respite would nauseate surgeons.
Like the surgeon, we are all affected by environmental color. But unlike the operating room, where the need to maintain sterility demands a minimum of architectural color, the colors in most interior environments can be planned to achieve desired effects. Color can be employed to energize, subdue, inspire, aggravate, or stimulate.
Of course, none of this is news to design professionals. Fast-food restaurants have used appetite stimulating orange for decades, while (appetite-suppressing) blue restaurants are as rare as blue moons. Pink, thought to dull aggression, has been used to subdue prisoners in correctional institutions - and players in opposing teams' locker rooms.
For years, parents heeded the advice of color expert Carlton Wagner, who cautioned against painting nurseries yellow because, he said, the stimulating color would make babies cry.
You won't find red walls in your cardiologist's office, not just because he sees enough of it in the operating room, but because the color has been proven to raise blood pressure. Freudian analyst Bruno Bettelheim was rumored to have painted patients blue to quell their anxiety.
Color and Context
For the most part, many of these color assumptions remain intact today, says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. However, she and others caution designers to dig deeper into the science of color psychology and the context of their projects before applying paint.
"Anybody can figure out that you want soothing colors in bedrooms and more stimulating colors in high-activity areas," says Janet Friedman of Friedman & Shields, a California-and-Arizona-based design firm. Though color psychology rules are far from universal, she notes. Just as people have differing color preferences, they also have different psychological and physical reactions to color. Their reactions can be influenced by everything from gender and age to socioeconomic status and heritage - and can be as individual as fingerprints.
For example, a study conducted at the University of Texas found that women experienced more depression in white, gray, and beige offices. Men, meanwhile, reported the same feelings in orange or purple rooms. Retailers routinely use color to attract desired customers. "The more money you pay," Friedman says, "the more you expect [store design to include] deep soothing colors," that suggest luxury and invite lingering.
Subdued nursing home color palettes may be more stereotypical than senior-sensitive, since many seniors are color blind. If they do see color differences, they might be put off by au courant chartreuse - but nostalgic in the presence of vintage peach.
Primary colors have long been a favorite in kids' rooms. Still, Friedman cautions, "If your children tend to be hyperactive, you're going to give them a much quieter palette."
Color in Flux
Color can be a shape-shifter in different settings. Most designers test colors in their intended environment to anticipate changes that might occur with different lighting. Colors that everyone loved on a selection board can take on a whole new feel in the context of a finished room, Friedman notes. The turquoise-and-yellow combination that looked merely spunky on sample chips can positively vibrate in large doses.
Even memory plays a role in human reactions to color. Green borrows from nature its benevolent effect on most people. But a child scared by a costumed witch's green face may find this color disturbing even as an adult. On the other hand, that response might depend on the particular shade of green. European researchers concluded that color saturation has a greater effect than hue. They found most deep colors to be equally exciting, while dull colors, no matter the hue, were calming.
The translation from the lab to real life though, can be complicated and tricky. The Baker-Miller pink devised for use in prison cells does have an immediate calming effect, Eiseman points out. However, studies conducted after prisoners adapted to the color found that the effects diminished over time. An Arizona sheriff learned this the hard way. After extended periods in their pink cells, inmates in Maricopa County jails for more, rather than less, agitated, Friedman says. Now the prisoners are issued pink underwear.
As for the yellow embargo in infants' rooms, feel free to break it, Eiseman says. "Wagner just hated yellow," she says, to the extent that he even denigrated those who liked the color, calling them "neurotic". After much searching, Eiseman hasn't found any research that supports Wagner's claim that the sunny color bugs babies.
Color is Subjective
Indeed, too much reliance on external justification troubles Caan, principal with the Shashi Caan Collective. "We need to rely more on intuition," she says. "Life is messy." And too complex to replicate in a lab. "We as designers need to become not only scientists and psychologists, but also rational people and artists." That means considering color holistically in the vernacular of the people with whom it interacts and the context of the place where it will be applied.
Teresa Cox, a St. Paul artist known for her exuberant, color-filled canvases, is a case in point. Cox responds viscerally to color, and her artistic experimentation reinforces to intuition. Her studio, which is also her home, is filled with color: a saturated golden-green floor, and deep-indigo walls; not to mention her colorful paintings everywhere. The tension between all these intense and competing hues would overstimulate many people. For Cox, they are like an elixir. When she once tried to create an 8-foot canvas in shades of only gray, black, and white, Cox felt uneasy/ "I was literally having cravings for color," she says. "I broke out my other paints and started to add red, which gave me and immediate lift."
Just as a few brush strokes of scarlet gave Cox a jolt of energy, even a tiny dose of color can profoundly affect a design.
Use the wrong color in the wrong place and "you'll know it," Friedman says. "Your teeth will start to itch."
Get it right, Eiseman says, and "there is a bell that rings".

Guests at the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show have a couple things in common: they're all looking for ideas, seeking fresh products, hunting the best deals...and the vast majority are foodies who love to entertain at home.
Back by popular demand, the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show will have the Jacksonville Magazine Cooking Stage which will feature daily cooking demonstrations from the area's most popular chefs. Guests can learn techniques, recipes, and of course, sample the goods!
In addition, Food Truck Sunday is back! Visitors can soak up the autumn air while they feast on food truck cuisine and enjoy live entertainment.
Here's a sneak peek of what's cooking on the Jacksonville Magazine Cooking Stage, with featured chef Jay Phelan's popular ratatouille recipe.
Ingredients
Step 1: start with a sauté pan on high heat and add four table spoons of olive oil. When the oil starts to lightly smoke, add the eggplant, garlic, onions, and chili flakes.
Step 2: While stirring with a wooden spoon, let the eggplant cook until it is somewhat sot and the garlic is light brown.
Step 3: Add the zucchini and squash and allow to sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
Step 4: Incorporate the tomatoes and zest of half a lemon into the ratatouille and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the ratatouille for 7-8 minutes uncovered.
Step 5: Add juice of half a lemon, basil and parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well, but don't mash the vegetables. The ratatouille should have some texture.
Step 6: Transfer to a large bowl. For presentation, place the arugula and one tablespoon of olive oil, juice of half a lemon, and salt and pepper to taste, in a mixing bowl. Toss lightly.
Step 7: Garnish on top of the ratatouille generously with the arugula salad.

The bathroom remains one of the top home remodels, and the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show is bringing in one of the nation's top bath experts to provide tips and advice for renovating and improving this space. Matt Muenster, host of DIY Network's Bath Crashers will be appearing live at the show this fall.
Can't wait to see Matt at the show? Here are Matt's Top 7 Bath Remodel Tips - just what you need to know as you start thinking about renovating your space.
1. The best place to start with any remodeling project is the budget. Not only will it have a big impact on the type of materials you select for your bathroom renovation, it will also help you set the boundaries of your design. Knowing what you can really afford to spend will make it a lot easier to decide what items you want to replace, and where you need to get creative!
2. Be brutally honest about your DIY skill level. Assess which projects to do yourself and which are better left to the pros. You could save yourself a ton of money in the long run if you don't have to call someone in to fix a project you've messed up. The best way to find a good contractor is to seek referrals from friends, family, neighbors, coworkers, and others who've had remodeling work done.
Marketplace Events Tip: Don't know many people who've worked with a contractor or taken on a project like that? Referral based websites like Angie's List and HomeStars are a great place to find a company you can trust.
3. Want to save some big bucks remodeling your bathroom? Consider refinishing existing items such as your bathtub, shower, sink, or tile. With refinishing you'll only pay a small fraction (as little as 10%) of the cost of replacement. Your bathroom won't be torn up for weeks, you'll avoid the big renovation mess, and you've put one less big ol' tub in a landfill.
4. Don't underestimate the importance of lighting in a bathroom. Sconce lighting at the vanity is the ideal way to get even lighting on your face, and installing it at eye level will help diminish unflattering shadows. Dim lighting is nice for a relaxing bath; bright lights are great for shaving or applying makeup. Adding more overall lighting can make a small bathroom seem larger.
5. Don't want your budget to skyrocket? Don't move your plumbing. On the surface, switching your sink and toilet around may look easy enough, but the problem lies underneath. Moving all that plumbing can be really expensive. Besides, if you spend less on moving fixtures, you'll have more to spend on that new sleek shower system or vanity you've been eyeing.
6. Some of the most effective updating in a bathroom can also be the easiest and the cheapest. Changing out all the hardware, such as drawer pulls, faucet handles, and showerheads, can have a big impact. Be sure to use the same finish, such as stainless steel, aged bronze, or brushed nickel, to keep the room looking cohesive.
7. Ventilation. Ventilation. Ventilation. Moisture is your bathroom's greatest enemy. Mold and mildew will make quick work of any renovation you've done, so be sure to install a vent fan of appropriate CFMs for the square footage of your bathroom. The rough guide is one CFM per square foot for bathrooms of one hundred square feet or smaller. New designs are quieter and more stylish than ever, and are a must have for any bathroom remodel.
Do these tips have you itching to start your bathroom remodel? Get more great advice and ideas from Matt Muenster at the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show. The home and garden event of the season takes over the Prime Osborn Convention Center October 1-4, 2015. Matt will be appearing live on October 2nd, 3rd & 4th - don't miss him!

Moving all that plumbing can be really expensive. Besides, if you spend less on moving fixtures, you'll have more to spend on that new sleek shower system or vanity you've been eyeing.
6. Some of the most effective updating in a bathroom can also be the easiest and the cheapest. Changing out all the hardware, such as drawer pulls, faucet handles, and showerheads, can have a big impact. Be sure to use the same finish, such as stainless steel, aged bronze, or brushed nickel, to keep the room looking cohesive.
7. Ventilation. Ventilation. Ventilation. Moisture is your bathroom's greatest enemy. Mold and mildew will make quick work of any renovation you've done, so be sure to install a vent fan of appropriate CFMs for the square footage of your bathroom. The rough guide is one CFM per square foot for bathrooms of one hundred square feet or smaller. New designs are quieter and more stylish than ever, and are a must have for any bathroom remodel.
Do these tips have you itching to start your bathroom remodel? Get more great advice and ideas from Matt Muenster at the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show. The home and garden event of the season takes over the Prime Osborn Convention Center October 1-4, 2015. Matt will be appearing live on October 2nd, 3rd & 4th - don't miss him!

Are you great at spotting diamonds in the rough? Do see you see old, dated furniture and envision a way to give it new life? You might just be part of a growing breed of savvy shoppers known as Upcyclers.
North Florida Upcyclers won't want to miss the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show at the Prime Osborn Convention Center, October 1-4, 2015. The home and garden event of the season features the Diva of DIY herself, Leanne Lee. Leanne will be sharing fun and fantastic upcycling ideas and DIY tips, so folks can learn how to better decorate their spaces and improve the environment.
Can't wait to see Leanne at the show? To help tide you over until October, Leanne has shared her best thrift store tips, so you can shop these venues like a pro!
Another thing you should do if you want to become a thrift store shopping expert is to keep an open mind. We all know there's about a hundred lamps that are in the back of the store. While the color of the light may not work for you, look at the shape and if the structure is there. If so, pick it up and bring it home! You can paint it or foil the base, and add a pretty shade that matches your home decor.
Coffee mugs and dishes are a dime a dozen. While they may be plain and boring, you can personalize the plates and mugs. These are great gift ideas that won't break the bank.
We have all seen the ugly, outdated 70s furniture that's sitting on the floor. It may be dirty and dingy, but look past that. Is the structure of the ottoman in good shape? If that coffee table sturdy? How about the chairs, are their overall frames in great condition? If so, go ahead and bring these items home! You can recover the ottoman with fabric to match your decor, sand and stain the coffee table, and create new to you chairs with paint, sanding, and stain or recover the seat."
Get more great ideas and advice for transforming older, worn pieces into beautiful and charming decor items on the Diva of DIY blog and at her presentations at the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show. She'll be gracing the stage at the show on October 2nd, 3rd, & 4th - you don't want to miss her!

The Diva of DIY's Best Thrift Store Tips
"When it comes to thrift store shopping, it can be challenging to know where to start. One of the first things you must know is that everything in the store was donated. If you think a price is extremely high, (I've noticed this a few times as my local store, that things were actually priced higher than the retail value), speak with a store manager in a caring manner and ask for a discount. Tell them your reasoning behind the price discrepancy, and see what they can do.Another thing you should do if you want to become a thrift store shopping expert is to keep an open mind.
