Up until recently, it was believed that grey was the best colour for any environment where complete concentration was required: from schools to offices and the doctor’s office. Today, colorimetry and colour therapy studies applied to the psychology of colour show that other tones would be more appropriate within offices to improve our mood and increase our daily productivity. Every colour has the capacity to stimulate the human mind and create a specific state of mind.
Colours for office walls
It is important to consider colour as an effective tool that can improve time spent in workplaces, providing support for employees’ psychophysical well-being and increasing productivity, and improving the image of the company by influencing corporate communication.
However, a distinction must be made between the different work areas: the entrance hall and reception, meeting and conference rooms, relaxation areas and the actual work area, differentiated by whether it is an open-plan or an executive office.
The first macro distinction to make is between warm and cold colours. The former have the ability to increase blood pressure and stimulate creativity and productivity. Cold colours have an effect on breathing and transmit a sensation of calm and tranquillity.
The choice of non-colours
Despite infinite possibilities, the colour most frequently chosen is white. This is an energising and refreshing (non) colour, but used on a large scale has the power to destabilise and create psychological insecurity. It is therefore advisable to use it as a backdrop and to complement other colours.
Other colours frequently used in the workplace are grey and black: in principle they may be a good choice, but they have the defect of creating a gloomy environment and a heavy atmosphere. They should therefore really only be used in ‘extreme’ cases where it is necessary to mitigate excessively bright environments.
Furnishings and work tops
The latest trends suggest the selection of furnishings with colours in decisive contrast to the walls, to emphasise their individuality, while the desks must be as neutral as possible. A neutral desk conveys a heightened sense of order and this increases productivity.
Furnishing with light
Every lighting designer is well aware that lighting is a fundamental element for creating a productive working environment. Today, LED lighting is indispensable for any solution, and the trend is to favour warmer colour temperatures because they are less fatiguing.
If office lighting needs to be improved, the focus should be on introducing pale colours in pastel shades and materials that reflect light: apart from the effect of an increased or reduced perception of space, the use of certain shades affects people’s productivity and comfort.
Which colours to choose for a modern office
There is no one-size-fits-all answer, but the choice must be determined by taking several factors into account. Today, an interior designer needs to know which are the ideal colours for productivity, while studying the colour trends of the moment and, of course, those preferred by the client. A designer must also take into account the structural characteristics of the office, and the opportunities afforded by artificial light to enhance architectural or design elements in individual rooms.
