Let’s Talk Colour

​When looking at colours and using colours, you should forget to think about what should be right. How a space feels goes beyond how it looks. If the result is beautiful then nothing else matters.

“Color is a power which directly influences the soul.”
Wassily Kandinsky

​Colour can be used to change the whole mood of a space. It is not a trivial element when it comes to design. It can be utilized boldly or subtly and even portray a sense of elegance. Everything you see, you see it in colour. 

“I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way – things I had no words for.”
Georgia O’Keeffe

​Colour is an inescapable fact, bold, neutral or even working in only white, as white has tints of other colours and reflects the other colours. 

Just think about nature, there we see balance and harmony occurring naturally. Like the dark dark forest floor, medium brown tree trunks, the green hues of tree leaves and the light blue colour of the skies above us.

“In nature, light creates the color. In the picture, color creates the light.”
Hans Hofmann
