Color psychology: Decorating with Green

Posted by Charnell on July 5th, 2010

The color is a favorite with hospitals because it promotes healing. It’s also the easiest on the eye. Green has a calming effect when used as a main color for decorating. Green is associated with Spring and new beginnings.

Bedroom: On a ‘primitive’ psychological level, the color green tells us that we are in a fertile, water-rich environment, above freezing temperatures, there is enough to eat and we will survive so we are safe and can relax.

Bathroom: Green can be very soothing, and can encourage you to develop a sense of harmony and self-restoration. It helps decrease your nerves, anxiety, and worries.

Living room: Green is also a very refreshing and rejuvenating color – it will help you restore your energy after a long and tiring day.

Dining room: Mix pale green with yellow and it livens up, but when combined with blue, it appears quiet and meditative.

Kitchen: Green is a nice ‘fresh’ and ‘organic’ color for the kitchen.

Office: Green stimulate the thought process and promote feelings of balance and harmony, which is why it’s a popular color in classrooms and study areas. Green can also make people complacent or too laid back so refrain from using too much green in the office or study.

How NOT to decorate in Green: I like green, I really do but this green bathroom is a bit cringe-worthy. I would not want to enter this bright green room early in the morning after a particularly jolly get-together the previous night.
