Interior and Exterior Painters
Home offices are not a new concept, but they have been enjoying a recent upsurge in popularity. Whether you are working from home, paying bills, corresponding, writing the next great American novel, or maybe just enjoying some quiet hours of procrastination, a home office can be a valuable corner of the world.
Did you know, though, that the paint colors you choose to surround yourself with might be more important than you think? There is more to choosing colors for your office than simply picking a color out of a hat.
Color Psychology: Learn Your Colors All Over Again
Color psychology (it's a real thing!) has been proven over and over again. Basically, it's the idea that the colors we surround ourselves with interact with our brains differently, prompting a variety of effects. Need help picking paint colors?
Take a look at this short breakdown:
- Red – This is an intense color. It not only kicks the brain into gear, but even has been shown to raise heart-rates! Because of this, why not use it as an accent color? After all, a little intensity is good, but too much can wear you down.
- White – While too much white can be boring to the eye, it can be used strategically. It absorbs and reflects light, while also creating an illusion of more space than is actually there, so why not use it in darker and more confined areas? It can increase morale by brightening a room.
- Orange and Yellow – These particular colors tend to elicit a lot of enthusiasm, but also shouldn't be overbearing. Try using these colors not in mainstream work areas, but in secondary spaces, like the lunchroom.
- Natural Colors – The deeper, calming nature of earthier tones can be a great compliment to the primary colors. They also tend to tone down their effect.
