Choosing a colour for the office walls seems like a trivial task. A mere detail. Something that needn't be given much thought. On the contrary, however, the colour you choose to paint the walls will affect the overall mood, productivity and energy levels of everyone in the office for as long as they are there.
Sound like hokus pokus? I assure you, this is science!
Now, if you were to ask Google (like I do for every important decision I make) what colour to paint your office, you'd find that most results suggest blue. Blue is a calming colour, they say, and leads to the highest productivity.
Calm and productive is good, but what if calm isn't really your style? What if calm isn't going to get the job done?
Say for instance your line of work is one that relies on your creativity. In this case you'd find that yellow is a better colour, bringing out optimism, self-esteem, confidence, extraversion and creativity.
Another scenario is one where it's physical activity taking place and not brain-work. In this instance you'd want a colour like red to stimulate strength, energy and physical courage as opposed to the calming effects of blue.
