People
's mood changes when they see vivid colours
which, has been taken into note by the therapist. Therefore
, they suggest that offices and hospitals should be painted in a particular shade. Whether the above statement is correct or not and to what extent an individual's fitness and working ability are determined by colourful things are explained in this
essay. Firstly
, colours
are associated with people
's moods. People
interpret tone differently because in every culture they have various meanings, but there are few shades of colours
which represent similar meanings in every culture. For example
, white indicates someone's death in the Hindu religion whereas
in Christianity it refers to a wedding. The red colour indicates danger in every society. Hence
, workplaces and nursing homes need to be painted accordingly
as it alters an individual's state of mind. Secondly
, the tones used on walls of corporations and healthcare buildings affect people
's way of working and their well-being. The right colour is needed to be chosen and if the wrong tone is selected then
there can be consequences. In hospitals, patients are needed to stay positive and feel relaxed. So, colours
like light blue, green, etc should be chosen, when dark shades such
as brown, black, blue, etc are painted, it can create a negative impact on patients. Furthermore
, offices should be coloured cream, white, beige, etc it helps the employee to concentrate on their work. Whereas
, tones like red, orange, yellow, etc distracts personnel and decrease their capacity of working. Hence
, the right selection of shades should be done for the office and health centre. In conclusion, the company's and medical centres need an interior which suits the people
's state of mind as it reflects on a person's health and capacity to work.Submitted by Alexandre Harvey
