Paint Colors for Your Commercial Business

commercial Learn the Best Colors for Your Commercial Business
It may be easy to choose colors for home but choosing colors for your commercial business space can prove to be a difficult task sometimes. The right paint will transform your home into something out of a magazine. The right color will relax you or brighten up a room. It’s all based on your tastes. But choosing office paint colors is completely different. You may love the color lavender but that doesn’t mean it should be on your accounting firm’s walls, right? Or should it?
​
Here, we will consider the process for making a choice when it comes to the right colors for your business space or office. And then we will suggest some brilliant ideas for getting your commercial paint job done. 

How to Choose the Best Colors for Your Business
A study carried out in 2012 shined light on the effects of hospital paint colors and discovered that white gives off a “clinical appearance.” Using that color for an office or business place makes people feel intimidated and unwelcome. Instead, your office color should be subtle. But what exactly does that mean exactly?

Most people grow up associating bright colors with energy, but it turns out they may not represent the right energy. For instance, a psychology study has discovered that red increases the speed and intensity of emotions. Red makes us feel as if everything is urgent, which leads to anxiety and worry.
​
Not very ideal for a productive office environment, is it? But it is ideal for sales, which is why retail outlets use the color red in their sale and clearance signs. People see the signage and think, “I must have this now!”

Intense hues like gem-colored greens and blues are great for energy but that’s not helpful if you work in an office where there’s a lot of thinking or collaborating involved. For example, emerald green could help you lose focus. It’s not only the color itself that affects your mood and behavior, the intensity (saturation) of the color affects you as well.

1. Light Blue/Teal: considering the fact that teal is a combination of blue and green, it helps to transform the workspace or business place into a whole productivity hub. When using this color, it is important to note that amount or intensity of use is vital for maximum impact.
2. Gray: this color falls between black and white which gives off a neutral mood. There are different hues and shades of gray which evoke different psyches.
3. Light Blue: A soft light blue like Ralph Lauren’s Salisbury Point will calm your surroundings and give off a peaceful vibe. This is a good choice for a private doctor’s office, especially a specialist, who deal with nervous patients daily.
4. Pastel Yellow: If you’re in a creative industry, a pastel yellow like Butter Regal Matte by Benjamin Moore will get your creativity flowing. This yellow is soft with a touch of gold which makes it easy to accent with whites or browns.
5. Brown: Brown works very well in a space that needs to feel powerful and strong. Coupled with rich wood office furniture, Wainscot by Farrow & Ball will also give off a nice warmth. 

​In conclusion, it’s easy to see with thought and careful consideration, you too can have the commercial paint color scheme that works just prefect for you! For all types of paint services contact us!
