The Role Color Plays in Your Home Office Painting Project
Posted on September 1, 2022
Home office painting is a trending topic lately due to the majority of American workers who have opted to continue working from home even when they were permitted to return to the office. Home interior designers & painters are constantly bombarded with questions about which colors enhance productivity and will help create the most beneficial environment for employees & their employers.
If you are currently working from home, then you understand that there are some challenges to being productive while not within the office setting. While working in your PJs can be great fun. You also must constantly be aware of your production levels and work to show your boss how much more effective your work is when you work at home. You must make sure your Zoom background doesn’t have a pile of dirty laundry in the background or show holes in your office’s walls. Not to mention, if you experience internet connectivity issues, it can ruin an entire day of productivity.

The Science about Color’s Ability to Affect Our Performance & Mood
We all have heard that red makes us feel awake & alert but yellow makes us happier. But are these just myths or urban legends? Or is there scientific evidence that backs up these color claims?
Angela Wright is a world-renown color psychologist who invented a scientifically-tested theory of color named The Color Affects System. She is also the author of a book on color psychology, and an international consultant on color theory. Dr. Wright has been studying how color affects a person’s behavior for over 40 years.
Dr. Wright explains why color affects human behavior:
“We’re always surrounded by lots of colors. Color travels to us on wavelengths of photons from the sun. And when they strike a colored object, that object absorbs only the wavelengths that match its own atomic structure, and they reflect the rest, and that’s what we see. So the different wavelengths strike the eye in different ways. In the retina, they are converted into electrical impulses that pass to the part of the brain known as the hypothalamus, which governs our endocrine system and hormones, and much of our activity.”
Dr. Wright’s work clearly shows that you should consider colors’ effect on you prior to painting it on the walls of your office. But she also offers more interesting insight, “What defines whether a color is stimulating or soothing is not the color, it’s the intensity. A strong bright color will stimulate, and a color with low saturation will soothe.”
This is why we tend to paint nurseries and toddlers’ rooms softer, lighter colors to soothe them. Also, the reason for kindergarten rooms to be filled with bright, stimulating colors that grasp attention.
