Black color affects a person, changes him.

In the European tradition, black is undoubtedly the color of mourning. V modern interior he entered relatively recently, but the monochrome solutions, so popular at the present time, are unthinkable without this color. Psychologists are of the opinion that black is not natural for humans. However, in modern world love for him rather symbolizes the desire to hide from the external environment and get a little respite.

Speaking of black, do not forget that the couturier has somewhat strengthened its value. Laconic design, clear lines and great attention to the texture are typical for modern premises no less than for the fashion industry.

Vibrations of black create protest, disagreement with outside world... Such a person can comprehend those areas that are closed to others. Black absorbs, but also gives. And he gives the opportunity to understand what is hidden. If a person wants to get to the bottom of the truth, then he chooses black. In the moment of reflection and reflection, wear black. Or when you want to hide from prying eyes.

Black's goal is a challenge. To get to the white one, you need to go through the black one. Only then can awareness be achieved. Black is permeated with white, but you can understand this only by letting black in. Black is able to mask, hide flaws. A person who wears black is in search of an important part of life, he lacks the necessary. The exit from black should not be done abruptly, you need to gradually add other colors.

Black is the color of night, mystery and solemnity. Elegance and high class are also inextricably linked to this deep and multifaceted color, as are style, sexuality, wealth and power. However, the conceptual black color is also an attribute of love of freedom, independence and often serves as a background for a bright and interesting personality, whose “multicolored” inner world does not need additional “embellishments”.

Psychologists believe that only self-confident people who are able to show their hidden passion and originality of nature can use black for interior decoration. There is also an opinion that black in clothes and furnishings is preferred by persons without illusions ...

Of course, rarely where you will find a purely black interior, but if it works out, most likely it will not be a living room, not a bedroom or a hallway. Most often, a bathroom or toilet can be seen in pure black.

Black color in the interior is the color of luxury, austerity and noble origin. A strong color by itself, folding into space, creates the power of ancient castles, something transcendent and unlimited. But on the other hand, it will be very difficult to stay in such a room for a long time. After saturation with the grandeur of the primordial blackness, there comes a feeling of their insignificance. Therefore, living spaces in black must have white elements.

Black and white interiors are built on the contrast of light and dark, with accents on the shape of objects and drawings. Of the black and white interiors, we single out the black interiors, where the area of ​​black exceeds light shades. In such a design, the first role will be assigned to the play of surface reflections on black materials. A stone wall in front of you, or a polished jet, whether the night itself is hiding on the rough walls. With the help of texture, black can be made cozy or aloof.

Interiors in black irritate the psyche, making it unbalanced (it's not for nothing that this color is anti-social), so it is worth limiting its spread to places of your frequent stay. But a short-term visit to such premises can, on the contrary, give an impetus to the release of subconscious images, which can be useful in some cases.

• in painting walls, ceilings or even floors (in high spacious rooms)
• to highlight contrasts and adjacent colors

• in small rooms
• in the interior of any premises in large quantities

GREY COLOUR

Brown supporters are people who honor traditions and stand firmly on their feet. Shades of natural wood are well perceived by the psyche, however, the abundance of brown in the design of the room indicates a certain static nature. People wearing these shades tend to have a strong and calm character or just don't want to stand out from the crowd.

If a person ignores brown shades, this, as a rule, indicates that he is not assiduous and prone to an overly dynamic lifestyle.

All in all…

Blue in the psychology of ancient peoples. Since ancient times, blue has been associated with a noble origin. Surely you've heard of the blue blood that is said to have flowed in the aristocratic veins. Some scholars are of the opinion that it all began in Ancient Egypt: there, the "heavenly color" was treated with such adoration that the inhabitants of Egypt even painted their legs with blue paint. Thus, they tried to demonstrate varicose veins, which, as you know, "wears" a bluish tint. It is because of this that this disease was considered a sign of high origin.

Since cyan (blue) is very close to black, both have identical symbolic meanings. Some tribes South Africa for example, dark blue or blue was considered mourning.

Who should I recommend this color to? For example, people who get annoyed very quickly and recover for a very long time after that. Pink color can calm the nervous system and make people more restrained and much calmer.

You, of course, are aware that "pink", in English, sounds like "pink". It is with this word that they denote something perfect and sublime. And before that they called beautiful people and any representative of the elite.

It was she who started using bright neon pink for her clothing collection. By the way, she called this color “shocking pink”. Interesting name, isn't it?

We all know very well that, thanks to the well-established stereotypes, it is dangerous to trust a woman - the driver of the steering wheel. Of course, it is unfair on the part of men, but the fact remains. Men, by their behavior, try in every possible way to prove that a woman behind the wheel is not a place. For example, in Switzerland, men park in places designed specifically for women. Noticing such discrimination, the authorities decided to scare off the men. What, what did they do? They gave the order to paint the place of the "female" parking in pink and plant, not far away, a flower garden. And the main goal was to, at least somehow scare off men. So, remember that pink is far from the best option for meeting the opposite sex.

Why is the color of "rose-colored glasses" useful? It improves digestion, lowers heart rate and pulse rate, normalizes sleep, and greatly improves appetite. It's all pink psychology.

Despite everything, pink and its shades can improve your mood. Let us verify this based on the results of one experiment. The authorities of Aurangabad (Indian city), just a couple of years ago, decided to repaint all houses and buildings in the city pink. Thus, they wanted to significantly improve the mood of all residents of the city, who are tired of enduring crime "roaming" in their vicinity.

Lilac color in psychology. In the interior. Meaning.

What does lilac mean? Lilac color value.

To begin with, a psychological experiment.

Do you see this Circle? - Look at its center. Hold your gaze. Stop your gaze in the center of the circle. Look at the crosshair. You will see that the Lilac dots have disappeared. There is still a green marker running in a circle. Take your eyes off. Everything fell into place. This is the Psychology of Visual Thinking.

Lilac color in psychology- the color of a bright future, nostalgia and creativity. (In general, any shade of purple creates a sense of mystery and mystery). It is usually chosen during adolescence. This is due to the fact that the lilac color is a mixture of blue and red (this is a mixture of two principles - the beginning of the masculine and the feminine). Lilac color (like purple) is the basis of color therapy. It also denotes immaturity or vanity.

Lilac is the color of new beginnings and growth. He is like a long-awaited spring after a cold and long winter... Lilac is also the color of vigilance regarding untapped opportunities.

Psychologists say that lilac represents a strong attachment to things, people and lifestyles. It is for this reason that people who love this color are very hard at parting. For them, it is a "little death".

If you love this color, then you are a sensitive, creative, sophisticated, at times, infantile person. However, you are also distinguished by distrust, secrecy, patience and reticence. It is commendable that you can stand all the trouble, presented by fate... You are always ready to help everyone without demanding anything in return. You are responsive and optimistic, but, nevertheless, prone to depression, from which, by the way, you get out without outside help. Your "plus" is that you, under no circumstances, do not blame fate for anything.

You strive to be non-standard, not at all like other people. Your goal is to be perfect. You are of the opinion that absolutely all dark vital sides, if desired, can be ignored. The first impression of a person and his appearance are extremely important parameters for you. You are savvy, although you are not distinguished by a subtle mind. You are striving for complete independence. You have a talent for creating a cozy atmosphere and harmony. You are very susceptible to colds.

Since lilac is a "close relative" of purple, the people who prefer it are very talented and unique. They are drawn to that which is unlimited and free. Lilac is their favorite color.

The lilac color is lively, however - joyless: it often causes a feeling of anxiety. If you absolutely dislike a given color, you are a business person. You hate it when a person "walks away" from a direct, important conversation, because you yourself prefer to be straightforward. Nostalgia is not for you: you prefer to live only in the present. You do not favor superficiality, both in appearance and in behavior. If you do not like something, you must tell about it.

Lilac color in human psychology is the color of style. Piercing, mystical and powerful. However, it is quite easy to overdo it with it. This is all because, in nature and in household use, such a color is extremely rare (you can recall plums and grapes, but they are purple, and not just lilac). The lilac color has a significant impact on the spiritual human state: thanks to it, you can learn to "take" force (creative) from your consciousness and free yourself from deep fears.

Lilac is a kind of expression of identification, impressionability, enthusiasm and curiosity. (From the fact that it constantly fluctuates from blue to red, from "calm" sensitivity to impulsive desire).

Bleached lilac is the color of meditation. Here it means calmness and poise, but, at the same time, this color is distant, unearthly and aloof.

“Hiding” in its depths the red and blue color, it acts, depressingly, on the human nervous system.

Lilac color, like purple, is like a chilled red. In this regard, it "sounds" a little sad, extinguished and painful. He is loved by those who have a rather unstable character. Lilac affects blood vessels, on the psyche and heart.

Lilac color in the interior. A color scheme. How can this color be used correctly in the apartment, or in the rooms in which you are? Below you will find some interesting information regarding this.

So, let's start with your personal account. The eggplant color is perfect here (the one that is closer to purple). The lilac color is very suitable for your bathroom: it will remind you of lavender and lilac bouquets. This color brings warmth, creates comfort and real coziness.

In the nursery (for girls) it is best to use lavender, as this is the favorite color of the Barbie doll. In the dining room and living room, purple is much more suitable than lilac.

By the way, it is useful to know that lilac goes very well with white (in large quantities), with yellow, orange and golden (but even here, the main thing is not to overdo it, otherwise the room, simply, can easily turn into clownery).

There was a time when, in America, the lilac (and purple) color, in America, was completely unpopular and was worn only by elderly ladies.

Anyone who rejects purple is prone to eroticism, afraid of losing his own self. These people are rational, they know how to control their sensitivity.

"Lilac" is unique and not influenced. He is an attractive and charming psychic. It surprises with its ability to quickly make all dreams come true. He is patient, playful, perceives people as they are. His "goal" is to charm those around him. He often hovers in the clouds and loves to build "castles in the air". In people, first of all, a lover of lilac, appreciates kindness, tenderness and sincerity. If a person prefers dark lilac, it means that this speaks of the need to manage his life.
