Breathe life into your workplace with COLOUR

30 May 2018

Have you ever thought about how the colours in your workplace might affect your employees and how you do business? If you haven’t, now is the time! Years of research has shown the impact that different colours have on thoughts and feelings. So what are your colours saying about your business?

Red conveys boldness, passion, drama and even danger. Vibrant reds can heighten senses, whilst earthier tones create warmth and comfort. Red is perfect for an accent wall in a dining area, or as the main colour in a smaller space.

Yellow conveys optimism, timelessness, hospitality, peacefulness and creativity. Uplifting yellows can promote communication and improve concentration. Yellow is the perfect colour to create a sunny area or to brighten darker rooms without windows such as hallways. 

Orange conveys friendliness, happiness, innovation and fun. It attracts attention, making a space feel approachable and welcoming.

Purple conveys mystery, royalty, eccentricity, luxury, and sophistication. As a combination of red and blue, purple can be dramatic or subtle, exciting or calming – depending on the shade you choose.

Blue conveys strength, dependability, tranquillity, calm, freshness and serenity. It’s a versatile colour which can create a cheerful and refreshing mood or a reflective and intellectual mood. It’s perfect for making smaller rooms feel larger in paler hues.

Green conveys growth, renewal, relaxation, gentleness, reassurance and safety. Green is most closely associated with nature, which can create a soothing, feel-good atmosphere. There are many ways to incorporate green in to your workplace, from paint, through to accessories and even plants which have been proven to improve productivity, wellbeing and creativity.
