The Influence of Colour in a Working Environment

Many case studies show that colour can play an essential role in our behaviour, emotions and general sense of well-being, so picking the right colour for your work environment be it a school, college or office can be very important in order to develop the right emotions with the people who use the space.

As manufacturers of work place products such as Office Screens and Room Dividers it is essential that we offer a carefully selected range of fabric colours that will help you to create that perfect work place environment.

For example, in Tracey Church’s case study she stated that “Children showed more preference for yellows and reds and correlated them with the positive emotions of happiness and surprise.” So office screens produced in our vibrant nyloop material could work well in a school.

The positive effect of using such colours could be encouraged in care environments too, it is thought that the use of these colours can promote creativity, energy and increased sense of well- being.

Whereas in an office the use of greens and blues could be best, as Tracey goes on to say “Since greens and blues are also calming and easy on the eyes, these would most likely be the most positive colours to use in the adult work place as green is also found to stimulate growth and balance emotions and is found to be highly preferred by adults.”

With 11 popular woolmix fabric colours available to choose from we feel that you will be able to find a shade that will best compliment your office colour scheme. Our range includes blue, black, green, grey, red, crystal, beige, ruby, violet, merlot and ivy.
