Dark blue commands respect and is therefore used for Police and other uniforms. Green is relaxing and is used on the walls of hospitals and even the emulsion we paint on our living room walls can effect our moods. Confused what we are talking about?

DO YOU ever think about the colour you wear for the day ? How light, how dark it is? Do you think colours can change our attitude, our mind set , can affect our mood, our interest ? If you are scratching your head to find the answer, then the answer is: Yes they do. Over the last few years, extensive scientific research has been carried out into the psychology of colour. It is logical to assume that what we see, especially colour, can affect the systems of the body. Psychologists and physiologists believe this to be true and are investigating exactly what each colour can do to our bodies.

Though the colours are viewed and perceived differently by different culture. Where in American culture, black has long been associated with death, while white is believed to signify life and purity. In the Orient, however, white is the traditional colour of mourning. A very important aspect of our visual experience is colour.

Blue is the coolest colour - the colour of the sky, ocean, sleep, twilight. Blue gives a feeling of distance. Put some blue in your life when you want:

calm and relaxation to counteract chaos or agitation
