Shaded White by Farrow & Ball

“It has that washed-out café au lait color that I love. Shaded White is very saturated, so if you like a stronger color, I would go for it! This color creates the perfect backdrop for decorating. It can go either masculine or feminine, which is a nice trick for an office. I’ve paired this wall color with black accents, a black desk, and some black and tan upholstery to create a super graphic, masculine space. I’ve also used the same color and mixed it with lots of pretty reds and blues to create a more feminine space. It’s a neutral, but a neutral with personality!” —Eric Hughes

Oval Room Blue by Farrow & Ball

It looks especially beautiful on built-in cabinetry and crown moldings for an unexpected twist!”Donna Mondi

Best Colors for Home Offices

With so many people working remotely or on hybrid schedules, the home office has become an important room in the house. Work areas have been thoughtfully carved out of living rooms, kitchen nooks, attics, basements, spare rooms, closets and even garages. Regardless of size or location, a considerable amount of time is spent in this room each day. Productivity is the #1 consideration for a successful workspace and color plays a role in achieving that.

Wall-Fast as the Wind PPU26-17

When choosing color for your home office, consider the types of activities that take place there. How does the room need to feel for you to do your best work?  Do you need to sit quietly and focus, or will you take calls and join video conferences? Will you need to move around the room or have tables available to spread out projects. Is this your private workplace, or do you share the area with other family members?

Proper lighting is a must: natural light from a window helps keep energy levels at their peak. Task lighting can also keep eyes from becoming fatigued if they focus on small details for a long time. Color also looks better in well-lit rooms!

Let’s take a look at how color can impact your working style:

White is a great color for small spaces to help areas feel larger and more open.

Blue is a tranquil color. Lighter blues have positive associations for clear thinking.

For a room that feels less serious, pink is a color that adds an element of charm and playfulness in an office.

Red is a high energy color – great for rooms where there are lots of conversations or activities taking place.

walls-Red Pepper PPU2-02  trim-Polar Bear 75

How the color of the walls of your office affects the desire to work does not work well in the office, it is quite possible that the walls are to blame. Or rather their color. So rather read what is there with your office: it will help you in your work or, conversely, drive you into a severe depression.

Studies have shown that 17% of office workers are more likely to contemplate the walls drying with fresh paint than going to a meeting. And the truth is, no one needs meetings in such a number. Half can be safely cancelled. As for the paint - this is quite an idea - instead of a couple of meetings, you can take and repaint the office. After all, the walls of your office are much more important than some kind of meeting there? In fact, what is the use of the meeting? An extra half hour of sleep? And the color of the office walls, as it turned out, will affect productivity and your desire to work for many years. So gather your strength and colors - and run to paint the office. Well, or if you are too lazy - just take this text to the boss, let him be impressed too and hire specially trained people for this business. And of course, you can relax at home for a couple of days while your office is being painted.

Gray and other neutrals

Author: Global Look Press

The tradition of painting offices in neutral (feel free to read as dull) colors was born by itself, well, apparently, so as not to irritate the eye once again. Gray, white, beige - a considerable number of cabinets around the world are painted in these calm colors. And gray suits are also prescribed by a mass of strict office dress codes. And now, attention, surprise! Gray completely demotivates, makes employees passive. And beige and white make employees, and especially employees, feel sad and depressed. As for male employees, orange and purple, which are far from neutral, also have a similar effect on them. In general, you understand what paint should be left in the store.

Yellow

Author: Global Look Press

Here the scientists were a little torn apart by the conclusions made. Some say yellow is cool. Everyone will look at him, enjoy life and be creative to the fullest. Others argue that it cannot be worse, your eyes will get tired of yellow even before you start work, and it will be impossible to concentrate at all. Well, they can continue to argue, but it seems to us that everything is quite obvious: if you plan to be creative and produce new ideas - paint the walls yellow, if you are going to focus and concentrate - do not paint!

Green

By Global Look Press

A green-painted office is the dream of every workaholic or someone forced by their boss to sit in the office for days. This color does not tire the eyes, and, in fact, it does not tire you either. But it calms and helps to focus. Also very good for reading. So if you have to pore over documents written in small print for a long time, green will help you control yourself, not get mad from monotonous work and not lose concentration. Look how the guy in the picture is shining, for sure it's all because of the green walls, or he just liked the blonde, or he is now told on the phone that his bonus this month will be a couple of million dollars. But, most likely, it's still because of the green!

Blue

Author: Global Look Press

In the ranking of the best colors for the office, blue confidently shares the first place with green. It helps not to lose concentration and, like green, does not tire. For everyone who has to work with numbers or small details, this is exactly what you need. The main thing is not to confuse it with blue (this is the darker one) or gray (this is the color of an office suit, from which everyone will become depressed).

Brown

Written by Global Look Press

Oddly enough, brown didn't make it into the dull group with its fellow gray. On the contrary, scientists believe that this color can create a feeling of safety and security. So if you sell insurance, for example, or the services of a security company, then brown will help convince customers that everything will be fine with you.

Red

Written by Global Look Press

It would seem like you have to go crazy to paint your office red. No, it really did. Red can also help creatives. It enhances emotionality and expressiveness, almost like yellow promotes creative activity, and generally invigorates. The latter, by the way, can also help those whose work is associated with physical labor. True, along with cheerfulness, red also increases hostility, so perhaps do not paint the negotiation room in this color. And also know - if you decide to paint open space with red - everyone will constantly nibble something in it, red stimulates the appetite. Well, you understand that everything is too ambiguous to paint the entire office. So if you are not a maniac-killer, not a member of the communist party, it is better not to paint all the walls. But you can apply red in the corner where the coffee machine was, the workers will come, watch and cheer up without any coffee.

Now you can apply our color perfection range to your office and decide how much it helps you in your work. If suddenly an assistant from him is so-so, it is urgent to repaint it.

Comfortable furniture, an eco-friendly computer and thoughtful lighting are not enough to create a comfortable working environment. One of the most important visual informants and stimuli is color. The color scheme plays a huge role in shaping the well-being and mood of a person. That's why it's so important to choose the right color for the office we're in all day long. This color should not be too bright to distract from work, but also not too calm to let us fall asleep.

An office is a place where people work. This means that the main task of the color scheme of the interior of your office is to help create a working environment. Stimulate activity, reduce fatigue, increase mindfulness and concentration, reduce nervous tension. We have prepared some interesting and useful information, and we hope you find it useful.

Five main rules when choosing an office color:

  1. The right color of the walls in the office not only sets the employees in a working mood, but also attracts new customers and partners. Psychologists are convinced that color is able, on a subconscious level, to "force" a partner to sign a contract on the terms that you offer.
  2. Three golden principles for choosing colors for painting/decorating walls: area, number of windows, amount of light.
  3. The color of the walls should: match the overall interior, not contradict the wishes of management or employees, not contrast with furniture, take into account the peculiarities of the impact on psychological health.
  4. Bright colors excite the nervous system too much and interfere with concentration, and variegation can cause headaches.
  5. Cold shades contribute to concentration, and the whole color palette of green has a positive effect on vision.

Below are some specific recommendations for using a particular color in your office interiors.

Gray and other neutral colors

The tradition of painting offices in neutral colors was born by itself. Gray, white, beige - a considerable number of cabinets around the world are painted in these calm colors. Gray suits are also prescribed by a mass of strict office dress codes. And now, attention! Gray color demotivates, makes employees passive. And beige and white make employees, and especially employees, feel sad and depressed. As for male employees, orange and purple, which are far from neutral, also have a similar effect on them.

Yellow

Here the opinions of scientists are divided. Some say yellow is great. Everyone will look at him, enjoy life and be creative. Others argue that it cannot be worse, your eyes will get tired of yellow even before you start work, and it will be impossible to concentrate at all. Scientists can argue further, but it seems to us that everything is quite obvious: if you plan to be creative and give birth to new ideas - paint the walls yellow, if you are going to focus and concentrate - choose a different color!

Green

A green-painted office is the dream of every workaholic. This color does not tire the eyes, and, in fact, it does not tire you either. But it calms and helps to focus. Also very good for reading. So if you have to sit for a long time checking documents written in small print, green will help you control yourself, not be annoyed by monotonous work and not lose concentration.

Blue

In the ranking of the most successful colors for the office, blue confidently shares the first place with green. It helps not to lose concentration and, like green, does not tire. For anyone who has to work with numbers or small details, this is what you need. The main thing is not to confuse it with blue and gray.

Brown

Oddly enough, brown did not fall into the "dull" group along with its companion, gray. On the contrary, scientists believe that this color can create a feeling of safety and security. So if you sell, for example, insurance, or the services of a security company, then brown will help convince customers that everything will be fine with you.

Red

Red can also help creatives. It enhances emotionality and expressiveness, almost like yellow promotes creative activity, and in general invigorates. The latter, by the way, can also help those whose work is associated with physical labor. True, along with cheerfulness, red increases aggressiveness, so it is better not to paint the negotiation room in this color. And also know - if you decide to paint it in red open space (open space) - everyone will always eat something in it, because red stimulates the appetite. With red, everything is too ambiguous to paint the entire office. But we still recommend using it in the interior.

We will separately touch on the most favorable color solutions for open space offices.

"Spread" the walls and visually enlarge the space in a densely populated and noisy due to conversations and buzzing of the open space technique will help light cold tones - pearl, water-green. And the colors of the "quiet" range will help to change the perception of noise - unsaturated cold ones: light blue, gray-blue. A calm range of pastel colors will reduce fatigue from crowds.

So, when choosing an office color, you should not be guided only by personal tastes and preferences. Color is a complex and multifaceted factor. Color in the office can solve many problems, but when used ill-conceived, on the contrary, it can create them. Ergonomic knowledge will help you choose the right color so that a good mood does not leave you, work is successful, and relationships in the team are harmonious.

Let us remind you that when renting offices in the business centers "Nobel" and "Nobel Park" in Tyumen, we are ready to offer not only painting the walls in any of your chosen colors, but also help in developing a design project for your office.
