No, really. Don乌鸦传媒檛 be afraid of colour. Colour ROCKS. Colour isn乌鸦传媒檛 乌鸦传媒渂rave乌鸦传媒� 乌鸦传媒� it乌鸦传媒檚 easy, interchangeable, versatile. Sure, colour can make a space less austere, it can lighten or brighten a room, yes 乌鸦传媒� colour can be used to highlight different areas, or hide them, but it乌鸦传媒檚 so much more. I want to open your eyes to colour乌鸦传媒� it乌鸦传媒檚 a beautiful tool for expressing who you are.
Hi, my name is Jules and I乌鸦传媒檓 addicted to colour.
Colour Psychology is a thing. I know you乌鸦传媒檝e walked into a room and felt it.. You love it, you hate it 乌鸦传媒� visceral reactions come from your brain 乌鸦传媒� you乌鸦传媒檙e triggered, good or bad. Just like smell can elicit deep emotion, so can colour.
If you know anything about me, you乌鸦传媒檒l know I love to play with design. At Evolve Design | Build, we only work with Commercial Spaces 乌鸦传媒� I am endlessly amazed at how Clients LOVE our work, our confident use of colour to express the personality of the organisation we are working with 乌鸦传媒� and yet, more often than not, they are frightened to let us use it on their project. Of course, we work our magic and they come through the fear to another amazing space, but where does that anxiety come from?
滨迟乌鸦传媒檚 PAINT, people! We need to get you over that barrier. (We love wall covering too, but I乌鸦传媒檓 saving that baby for another article乌鸦传媒�) but PAINT! It can be changed whenever you like, it乌鸦传媒檚 like wearing a new coat for a season (or, let乌鸦传媒檚 be honest, three).. it乌鸦传媒檚 not a lifetime commitment. Let your space tell your story!
So who are you? What vibe do you want in your offices? How do you want you and your team to feel while they乌鸦传媒檙e working?
If you乌鸦传媒檙e looking for passion, provocation, energetic spaces 乌鸦传媒� it乌鸦传媒檒l be no surprise that red is your answer 乌鸦传媒� and I use a LOT of red! I love the ambition, confidence, motivation that it provokes. Red speaks to me乌鸦传媒� I乌鸦传媒檓 pretty loud.
What about black? There乌鸦传媒檚 so much black in our spaces recently, whether it乌鸦传媒檚 pulling in the furniture or accessories, or full-on black walls, black is definitely a statement 乌鸦传媒� it乌鸦传媒檚 a dark neutral and often overlooked. I find the drama and directness of black to be classy and edgy, yet stays fresh and timeless.
And can we talk about pink? Sure, pink is sweet and feminine, that乌鸦传媒檚 OK 乌鸦传媒� and where Mr CEO will probably revolt 乌鸦传媒� Ms CEO shouldn乌鸦传媒檛 shy away through fear of bringing up the pay-gap conversation.. Pink can scream 乌鸦传媒淗ell yeah, I got this, move outta my way乌鸦传媒�, it can shout your confidence far better than you can with your imposter-syndromed brain..
So whether it乌鸦传媒檚 optimistic, joyous yellow, gorgeous greens that inspire us to think about calm, natural, settings, deep purples that pour feelings of luxury and wealth over our senses, the strong, solid, stabilising emotions that grey does for our grounding and don乌鸦传媒檛 get me started about gold (too soon?) 乌鸦传媒� choose colour! We got you.
