Have you ever wondered whether color on an office desk has an influence on productivity? In fact, many big name companies use color psychology in office design in an effort to improve the mood of workers and customers, and by extension increasing productivity and increasing income.
Blue in the office can have a very calming effect on employees and help in concentration, especially when workers are asked to complete complex tasks. Blue is a very good choice in an office where activities require a detailed focus. By helping maintain calm, blue can also stimulate mental processes and increase worker productivity.
According to research, white is the worst color for painting offices. White walls tend to emit a feeling of being sterile or clinical, such as being in a medical examination room. Research has shown that white can inhibit productivity and produce feelings of cold and isolation. It’s best to use white as an accent color.
If you want to creatively flow, choose yellow. This color is often associated with positive emotions such as happiness, optimism and excitement. Used in office decorations, yellow can help inspire employees who work in the creative field to produce innovative new ideas.
Red is a bright color that can energize employees, especially those whose duties involve physical activity. Known to increase heart rate and even produce a slight increase in blood pressure, red can help increase the body’s ability to complete physical tasks. Red is also very effective as a “call to action” to get customer attention for marketing messages.
Different green colors can cause positive and negative emotions. However, in general, green is usually associated with nature and rebirth. Painting a office in a soothing green can help relieve anxiety and make people feel more relaxed and welcomed.
