Colors: Their Connotations and Perceived Meanings





ItemTitle

Throughout the ages, colors have been used to evoke sure emotions, and an examination of the history of color offers enchanting insights into the human condition, as well as showing how dissimilar cultures have developed dissimilar attitudes about color. Here are a few examples of what discrete colors have come to represent over the years:

Red

Red has traditionally been linked with courage and love in Western culture, but in China, red is the color of happiness and good fortune. In fact, white has traditionally been the color most adored for wedding dresses in America, but the Chinese prefer to dress their brides in red.

Orange

Orange is thought about a warm color, possibly because it has evoked the feeling of fire, all the way back to mankind's earliest beginnings. Painting walls a subtle orange, leaning toward a warm brown, stimulates the appetite and can sacrifice tension. However, as the orange color becomes brighter, it begins to take on a high energy feel and can lead to anxiety.

Brown

Brown is an additional one warm and comforting color, stimulating the appetite and of course manufacture food taste better. That makes coffee brown, in all intensities, with or without the cream, an ideal candidate for dining rooms.

Yellow

Since it's all the time been linked with the sun, yellow has traditionally been thought about a cheerful color. Yellow is also the first color most population see in early spring, when the daffodils begin to bloom. However, there seems to be an East/West cultural divergence when it comes to yellow. The Chinese revere yellow adequate to have thought about it the imperial color since the 10th century, yet some Western studies have shown that yellow is many people's least popular color.

Green

Green is an additional one color that has both an up and down side. It's linked with the new increase of spring, prosperity, and clean, fresh air, yet it can also carry a negative connotation, in terms of mold, nausea, and jealousy. Throughout the ages, green has most often been thought about to represent fertility, and during the 15th century, green was the most popular selection of for the wedding gowns of European brides.

Blue

Because it's linked with the color of the sea and the sky, blue has come to symbolize serenity and infinity. That's especially true of the more greenish shades of blue, such as aqua and teal. On the other hand, cooler shades of blue can have a tendency to cause feelings of sadness.

Purple

Over the millennia, purple has been linked with royalty in Western civilizations, due to the mystery and charge complicated in producing purple dye, which was made from a single species of mollusk shell. Even today, when purple can be produced just as inexpensively as any other color, the use of purple is still thought about to represent elegance and sophistication.

There are stories and connotations for every color, and dissimilar cultures assign dissimilar meanings to colors. For instance, American brides generally prefer white wedding dresses, while many Asian cultures dress their brides in black, reserving white for funerals. But regardless of what culture on is from, one thing is certain: colors will all the time have effects on human beings and should be thought about thought about when decorating a home.
