"Color is a vital tool as it significantly influences how we observe and perceive different objects; our brain can distinguish objects by color. There is also a strong connection between the shades and our moods and emotions. For instance, there is a huge difference between emotions evoked by cool and warm tones. Thus, colors create psychological effects on the receiving person."
"Neuroscientist Bevil Conway's research about the brain's color system has substantial value for designers and artists. He determined that parts of the brain respond differently to certain colors. The most interesting thing is that some parts are more sensitive to specific colors. For example, neurons in the brain's visual areas are more susceptible to red than green or blue. A small percentage of cells are tuned to yellow, but red elicits the strongest response."
Color psychology studies how colors impact behavior, moods, and decision-making. Different shades influence perception of brands, products, and services. Color functions as a vital perceptual cue because the brain distinguishes objects by color and links hues to emotional states. Cool and warm tones evoke different emotional responses. Neuroscience indicates that some visual neurons respond more strongly to certain colors, with particularly strong sensitivity to red and limited tuning to yellow. Designers should anticipate desired effects and avoid colors that may be misinterpreted because of adjacent hues. Marketers leverage color choices to influence consumer preferences and decision-making.
