Our usual living environment, which is formed through design, has a huge impact on the health and psyche of all people living in the apartment. That is why it is vital that the layout, objects and colors around us are consistent with the character traits of the residents, create a healthy psychological climate and contribute to comfortable living.
IN recent years Particular attention is paid to color. Human color perception is a mysterious physiological phenomenon. We are able to perceive color only with our eyes, but it affects almost our entire body: our mood, well-being, health. Some believe that it has the ability to heal illnesses and set the tone for life. Let's look at how color affects interior design.
How does color affect a person?
It has long been known that the right choice of colors when decorating a room can work wonders. It not only decorates the interior and creates a positive mood for the people in it, but also supports a person in his endeavors.
For example, there are color combinations, which help to significantly increase productivity and make work easier, create a calm and cozy environment conducive to good conversation and relaxation.
In addition, with the help of color you can form an idea about objects, their beauty and purpose. Color allows you to focus on certain details indoors, and hide others.
There is a whole science that studies color, but it is closely related to other areas of human knowledge. It is at the intersection of psychology, physiology, physics, lighting engineering and art history that you can learn how and why color affects our bodies.
Long-term studies and observations have revealed that the colors of the short-wave part of the spectrum (blue, green, cyan) and the long-wave part of the spectrum (yellow, red, orange) affect different parts of the human nervous system. Therefore, the first group of colors began to be called cold, and the second - warm.
Warm colors affect us like coffee in the morning. They temporarily tone up nervous system, briefly increasing a person’s performance, and then bright, flashy colors begin to depress it - and the person has no resources left for active activity. These colors are great for sports facilities.
On the contrary, cool colors in the interior calm the nervous system. They help to use the body’s resources wisely and maintain performance longer. In addition, they allow you to quickly relieve tension and calm a person. These colors are great for rooms where you have to do mental work and often work at the computer.
There is a special group of colors: shades of the middle part of the spectrum (blue-blue, green-blue, yellow-green colors) and mixed soft pastel colors(green-gray, gray-blue, turquoise colors). Their effect on humans is most favorable. They have a calming, calming effect.
Psychologists and painters know that color affects a person, causing certain emotions. In addition, in different psychological states we can perceive the same color differently. In addition, historically it has developed that certain colors contain clear symbolism - state, religious, secular. Using this body of knowledge, designers select colors for the interior.
Pay attention!
Color has a tremendous impact on a person, but it is not the only color that can influence us. Any piece of furniture, any structure in a room never appears to us uniformly colored. Lighting sets the contours of an object, blurring or enhancing its outlines, and forms color shades, places emphasis. Therefore, light often plays no less important in creating psychological comfort than color. Keep this in mind when choosing what color to paint your walls!
