Interior decorators and home designers also recommend and encourage rooms to be as clutter free as possible, because clutter throughout the house can cause one to feel frustrated, or even depressed.
Feng shui also tends to emphasize how color is used, for example using bright colors like orange or yellow are good choices for high energy rooms like the kitchen. In a similar way, these principles recommend that we use warm colors like green or brown in places where want to emphasize relaxation and culminating, like the bedroom or living room.

It has been shown that bold, bright colors can spark your energy, while dark colors can make us feel depressed. While feng shui may not be based all years and years of scientific research, it is interesting to note that these principles were developed long before science study to the question.
