Could The Colours In Your Office Impact Your Workplace's Productivity?

With regards to choosing the colours in your office environment, many people believe that different colours inspire different emotions and feeling within your staff.

For example, some would argue that the colour red is linked to feelings such as passion, assertiveness, and power. So, if you are trying to create a motivated and energetic working environment, you might consider using red in the workplace.

Indeed, it is known that office design can affect the happiness and wellbeing of your employees. Additionally, the wellbeing and happiness of your employees can affect their productivity, as such; it isn't too farfetched to suggest that the colour of your workplace could have an impact on the productivity of those working in the office environment.

Using Colour Correctly.

With the average person spending a considerable portion of their time indoors, it is very important that numerous aspects of the office interior design are considered. Whilst office furniture and office layout are indeed very important with regards to employee productivity and wellbeing, other factors such as workplace colour schemes should also be considered.

According to research regarding the psychology of colour. Colours can be responsible for both physical and psychological effects on people. This can trigger a range of moods and emotions. As such, if used correctly, colour can be a powerful office design tool to boost productivity, wellbeing, and create a workplace that inspires your employees.

What Colour To Choose?

There are numerous different colours that you could choose for your workplace. When considering a change in workplace design, it is important to choose a colour that fits you brand. Whilst it may be tempting to opt for fashionable colours, you should aim for an office colour scheme that both reflects your brand, and the values in your business' ethos.

For example, you could keep the majority of the office areas a neutral colour, with different colours representing different areas. For example, sales and marketing could be marked with red, with red office furniture and accessories; representing the high energy working environment often associated with sales rooms.
