Thus, the color would we choose will certainly remind us of the atmosphere or the time that has formed in our minds, which automatically will also affect our moods and feelings. In general, we can choose to use color to achieve two things.

- Part or component that you want to hide.
- Part or component that you want to highlight.
- What color will be selected, used, and the following combined alternatives. Suppose for the roof, the walls, and below the window sills and doors.

Part of the main door can be a contrasting color to attract attention.
* Color dark.
