The Psychology of Colours

Scrolling on social media, you encounter a picture of your friend rendered with a black and white filter. The stark contrast induces an aesthetic appeal, the greyscale gives it a “vintage look”that aligns perfectly with current trends. The thought of a monochrome world seems quaint, but there existed a time where simplicity was the norm. The pixels on one's television existed in a two colour palette . Prior to the introduction of colours on screen, people dreamt in black and white. All they knew were the contrasts of these two hues. The power of colours was more unknown than understated. It was not until the late 1950s that a pivotal shift occurred in the industry. A significant milestone where the vibrant colours displayed on the screen enhanced a sense of realism in people. The ability to experience a spectrum of colours imbued appreciation for different palettes. Standing as a symbol of a significant leap in modernity, the power of colours came to sight.

The impact of colours goes beyond mere aesthetics. It possesses the ability to evoke a sense of emotion. In India, for instance, Holi, the festival of colours that symbolises goods triumph over evil. Celebrated with the sky painted in different shades, it proves that colours do speak all languages. Colours, in their myriad shades and chromatic intensity, possess the ability to influence the human brain, shaping moods and perceptions. Ever walked into a room feeling calm and comfortable or energised and alive? The secret lies in the power of colours. It is an essential factor that helps harmonise a space, therefore connecting with the occupant on a deeper level. Whether it's your workplace, reading nook or bedroom, it's the different hues that shape our experience.
