Color Conveys Meaning:
Commercial interiors symbolically convey
meaning by creating a specific dynamic around corporate
image - conservative, trustworthy, high-energy, casual,
upbeat, etc.
In visual experiences, harmony is identified
as something that is pleasing to the eye. Color harmony
helps to create a sense of order and balance in the visual
experience of a space. Color interaction among each surface,
area, and quantity, affects design strength.
The successful use of color in interiors
comes from knowledge of color basics, the translation of
color language, and the effect of proportion and scale
with the use of color in a given space.
