Why is color such a powerful force in our lives? What effects can it have on our bodies and minds?

The psychology of color is a fascinating topic: how color influences perceptions that are not obvious and how different hues stimulate mood and behavior.  Our brains process the color we see in a way that impacts the decisions we make and shapes the people we are.  

While perceptions of color are somewhat subjective, there are some color effects that have universal meaning.

​As we choose the colors that surround us, sometimes knowing their associated traits can tell us why we are drawn to them and how best to incorporate them in our home.
