“Colours, like features, follow the changes of the emotions,” – Pablo Picasso

There is an increasingly growing demand for colourful and vibrant workplaces as office designers are tuning into the importance of the impact of colours. Generally speaking, collaborative and dynamic spaces tend to use vibrant and brighter shades of colour that would prompt constructive vibes.

Nowadays, a lot of businesses seek to develop work environments that actually embrace their brand and core values rather than just reflecting them. In essence, the workplace transforms into a strategic branding tool, and while there is much more to it than just choosing brand colours and logo placement, colour does play a significant part.

Factors to consider when choosing the right paint colours for your office space

Purpose of the space

There are some industries where specific colours work better than others. For instance, neutral colours like varied grey and white tones are ideal for formal settings like offices and banks. Retail locations frequently aim for more striking and engaging hues that attract customers, such as varied red and orange tones. Choosing high-gloss ACP sheets for such spaces is always a welcome choice.

Amount of natural light in the space

Your choice of paint colour will be considerably influenced by the light. Darker tones work better in spaces with lots of natural light than lighter tones do in spaces with little to no natural light. It’s also crucial to consider how different colours will seem under other lighting conditions. ACP Panels from Aludecor have various series that can bring up varied looks as per the lighting conditions.

Size of your space

Desired temperature of the space

Colours range from warm to cool to anything in between. Make use of orange, red, and yellow to “warm up” a room. Another well-liked colour for bringing warmth to a room is peach. Do you want to make your room cooler? Think of light green or blue.

Picking the right shade:

Confused about which colour to choose? Here’s what the experts have to say about the significance of primary colours –

Blue

According to studies, being in a blue room often increases productivity and helps people think more deeply. Employees may experience calmness and relaxation as a result of deep blue.

Green

Green represents harmony, innovation, and optimism. Psychological studies claim that being in a green room stimulates the innate human propensity to make connections because green is associated with natural components.

Red

Intense colours like red may make a space feel cosy. Red can be utilised to energise an area where more physical activity is required since it is bold. However, because it is such a vivid colour, using it excessively can give you headaches and other discomforts.

Purple

Deep purple and other “space colours” might encourage introspection and original thought. These hues are appropriate for establishments that encourage mindfulness and a zen-like atmosphere. Although purple is not frequently utilised in the workplace, historically, it has been associated with luxury.

Yellow

Yellow may add a dazzling punch of colour to your room and make your day more cheerful because it is motivating and brilliant. A splash of yellow in your space can be energising and uplifting, but you should use a highly saturated yellow sparingly to prevent headaches.

Orange

You can use orange to give your employees energy and to support their resolve. Additionally, it has a warm hue that may make visitors feel welcome. Like with yellow and red, too much of it can become overbearing with time.

Black and white

This is a much more neutral choice for wall painting. These shades, along with beige, are widely used in offices and occasionally seen as dull or unappealing, but neutral colours are essential to showcase the colour accents you choose to emphasise. The amount of natural light your office receives and the way your colours are finished are other factors to take into account when decorating the inside of your business.
