Color is a powerful, yet often underestimated, tool in the interior design of commercial properties. It goes beyond aesthetics; color directly influences the mood, concentration, and productivity of employees.
Colors and Their Effects
Where traditional offices often chose neutral, sometimes sterile color palettes, we see a more conscious approach in modern ergonomic design. Green tones, like in our accent color, promote calm and concentration – ideal for focus rooms. Blue stimulates the mind and communication, perfect for collaboration zones.
A common mistake is the excessive use of one intense color. The art lies in balance: use calming, natural base colors for walls and floors, and add psychologically supported accents through furniture, art, or – as we often advise – living office plants.
Practical Application
When furnishing a new location for a tech startup, we combined gray, sound-absorbing wall panels (for calm) with yellow, strategically placed cushions in the lounge area (for energy and creativity). The result was a space that supports both productive deep work sessions and lively brainstorming.
For your next renovation or move, don't just think about the layout and furniture, but also create a color plan that supports the desired company culture and workflow. Color is the silent director of daily performance.
