Wall paint color plays a big role in keeping control of the temperature of your home. You would want your home feeling cooler during the summer time, so, choosing the right colors that also match your preference, will help keep your place cool. Dark colors absorb light (infrared rays), making the space warm, while light colors reflect light and lessen the heat.
Early summer in the Philippines is the best time to have your space painted. Humidity is not that high and the paint dries and cures properly. This is another reason why most construction and renovations are done during this period.
