Wall paint can affect our emotions

Roses are red, violets are blue, painting your walls the right colour can do wonders for you.

You walk into a room that’s been painted a deep, ocean blue and immediately feel a sense of calm wash over your entire being.It may be a coincidence that your emotions seem to perfectly mirror the serene hue of the walls of the room that you’re standing in. However, it could also be down to the scientific impact that certain colours have on your mood.

Taubmans, a paint company in Australia, partnered with virtual reality company Liminal VR and a team of psychologists and neuroscientists to carry out a study exploring how the colour of a room and a person’s emotions are connected.

The study was conducted in collaboration with the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health in Melbourne, a leading brain research facility.

745 participants were given Google Daydream virtual reality headsets, on which they were shown five colours from the Taubmans paint range in three different types of room.

After being shown each colour, the participants were then asked to describe how they felt by selecting one of eight emotional responses, which included emotions such as “excited”, “cheerful” and “tense”.

They were also asked to state how much they liked the colour that they’d been shown using a five-point scale.

The researchers discovered that pastel colours such as light green, lilac and blue were likely to make the participants feel calm, while brighter colours such as yellow, orange and pink made them feel more upbeat and excitable.

While it may seem like a trendy choice to paint the walls of a room in your home a dark colour, the study concluded that doing so may make you feel sad.

However, if done right, painting a specific wall or area of your home a dark colour doesn’t have to have a negative impact on your mood.

“Using darker colours can make a room appear smaller, so make sure this is taken into consideration,” says colour consultant Grace Garrett.

“An entrance, a powder room or bathroom are ideal spaces for implementing a dark feature colour.

“These are spaces you don’t spend a lot of time in but can create a striking impact without having to be surrounded by it for long periods of time.

    The tallest building in Europe is nearly complete. Rising above a new waterfront complex in St. Petersburg, Russia, the Lakhta Center's tower stands at 462 meters (1,516 feet) tall, making it the city's first "supertall" building (one measuring 300 meters or above).
  • Architecture - Reaching for the Sky

    Architecture is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. A building reflects the scientific and technological achievements of the age as well as the ideas and aspirations of the designer and client. The appearance of individual buildings, however, is often controversial.
  • Crop-growing skyscrapers

    By the year 2050, nearly 80% of the Earth’s population will live in urban centres. Applying the most conservative estimates to current demographic trends, the human population will increase by about three billion people by then. An estimated 109 hectares of new land (about 20% larger than Brazil) will be needed to grow enough food to feed them, if traditional farming methods continue as they are practised today.
