Did you know that the environment can affect your emotions and state of mind? Have you ever noticed that certain places are especially annoying to you? Or that certain places are especially relaxing and calming? And all because color can have enormous power over us.

Red, orange, and yellow are next to each other. Warm colors often evoke feelings of happiness, optimism, and energy. However, yellow, red, and orange can also attract attention and signal danger or motivate you to take action (remember stop signs, danger warnings, and barrier tape). Red can also increase a person’s appetite. Cold colors – green, blue, and purple.
Cold colors are usually soothing, but can also express sadness. Purple is often used to ignite creativity, as it is a mixture of blue (calm) and red (intense).
It is important to note that colors can be subjective – what can make one person feel happy can irritate another depending on the audience’s experience or cultural differences.
