GC Painter Trend Painting Solutions helps you select colours

Choosing your colours 16 Dec 2014

Your painter & decorator will tell you that everyone from residential homeowners to commercial business owners must consider the message they give off. Selecting the right color for your project can make all the difference.
Research has shown that particular colors conjure up different emotions in us and realistically,as your painter will tell you, there is no escaping colour. What does it all mean? Why are people more relaxed in green coloured rooms? Why do weightlifters perform best in blue gyms? Here is a look at the ways in which we are affected by colors.

RED
 
Not only does red signify intensity, it also leads us to become more aggressive and forceful. Ask your painter and they will explain that you will feel an increased level of energy when exposed to the colour red. Some particular shades will even have people focused on other strong emotions like love and passion.

YELLOW

Yellow drives a different kind of energy like happiness and it brightens up anyones day. According to your painter you can appreciate the colour's fullest impact when yellow is allowed to stand on its own.

BLUE

Speak to your painter & decorator and they will tell you that waking up to a beautiful blue sky can influence our mood for the whole day. When that occurs we are processing emotions that leave us more carefree and calm.

GREEN

Green represents more than just nature as it can stir up emotions related to rebirth and freshness. If you're looking to change the way people think, consult your painter and start campaigning with something green.

ORANGE

Your painter will tell you that perhaps the most captivating colour of all is orange which pulls elements from both yellow and red and strikes a balance in the middle. Its flamboyance and originality inspires us. Orange is heavily associated with joy and optimism.

PURPLE

Purple is all about prestige as it symbolises luxury and significance. Consult your painter as even just a splash of purple can change the look and feel of everything.
