Organisations and optimising colour schemes

Colour psychology is how people respond to colours which in turn invoke different types of emotional changes in their current behaviour regarding the subject. Recent studies have proven that when people see the colour red, their rate of reaction not only amplifies but also becomes quite forceful. They seem to have a boost in energy, and there is a reduction is analytical thinking. A sense of urgency gets developed due to which they make faster decisions regarding the topic and their hearts begin to race.

This same psychology is used by several companies all over the world to optimise their advertisement strategies to attract new customers. Some organisations also apply this psychology to their day-to-day business and logos so that it has a much vivid effect on their customers. The type of colour scheme one uses to design their logo, or the interiors of their office dramatically influences the enticement level of their customers towards their product or services. The font, the words and the layout, everything plays a significant role in design. Red being a dramatic colour is associated with love as well as anger. It is programmed into a psyche such that we can sense danger whenever we see the colour red, which in turn creates a sense of urgency in the people and they’d want to click on the font which you’ve boldly mentioned in red. Being a bold and bright colour, it naturally catches attention and comes in several hues for one to use in their advertisement schemes.
