How do colors affect us? Introduction

Colors have a profound effect on us at all levels—physical, mental, and emotional.[1]

Therapists, interior designers, artists, stylists, and many more have long held that colors can significantly affect feelings, moods, and emotions.

In fact, the use of colors is so common, in a wide range of fields.

Countless studies have been conducted on the relationship between color, particularly in the areas of marketing and branding.[2]

Here are some of the findings:

  • Color influences 85% of the shoppers’ purchase decisions.
  • About 62‐90% of the product assessment is based on colors alone.
  • Colors increase brand awareness by 80%.

 

Corporations use colors in their logos to summon different emotions in consumers. For example;

  • Fanta uses orange to encourage a feeling of fun and confidence
  • Apple uses grey to encourage a feeling of modern and neutral
  • Greenpeace uses green to encourage a feeling of growth and health

Several ancient cultures, including the Egyptians and Chinese, practiced the use of colors to heal, today it’s still used as a holistic or alternative treatment.

 This method is called Chromotherapy.[3]

  1. Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the images on this
    blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog.

      There are browser compatibility problems in Explorer,
      according to my programmer it isn’t specific to my site but a WordPress compatibility problem in Explorer.
      Unfortunately, I don’t believe that they will fix it, as lately I found out that Internet Explorer Is Officially On Its Last Legs,
      => https://www.forbes.com/sites/leemathews/2021/08/19/internet-explorer-is-officially-on-its-last-legs/?sh=1b6a49852f07
      Anyway, till now, there is no problem with other browsers.

    introduction – PURA by Al is kinda boring.
    You should peek at Yahoo’s home page and note how they create news titles to grab viewers to open the
    links. You might add a video or a picture or two to grab people
    interested about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it might make
    your blog a little livelier.

    know-how concerning unexpected emotions.
