White projects purity, cleanliness, and neutrality. Doctors don white coats, brides traditionally were white gowns and a white picket fence surrounds a safe and happy home.

In Western interior design, the color white is used to create an airy, pure, clear, serene feel for a home. On floor, walls and furniture, the color white can make a room feel larger than it is and add a crisp freshness to an interior design scheme. To take advantage of the psychological effects of the color white, you don’t always need a lot of it.

In Feng shui, White is the color that belongs to the feng shui element of Metal. Its feng shui energy is crisp, clear, clean and fresh. White is the color of beginnings, as well as clear endings.  Excellent for feng shui use anywhere in your home, especially to contrast brighter colors; White Color is highly recommended for the feng shui areas where Metal is the dominant element, such as West and Northwest (according to the Ba-Gua.)
