Chromotherapy in office furniture: what it is

Chromotherapy or “color therapy”, is part of alternative medicine. At the basis of this ideology is the idea that the electromagnetic waves contained in the colors generate oscillations in the body cells, with the final result of an improvement in the functioning of the latter.

Color is a fundamental element in furnishing an environment, especially in an office where we spend most of our time. This reasoning can also be exploited in a business context.

The various spaces and their relative color

To take advantage of the benefits of chromotherapy in office furnishings, it is important to choose the right colors that stimulate the most suitable emotions in people with respect to the area of ​​the office in which you are located.

Let’s look, now, what the most recommended colors for the various office areas can be.

The operating area of ​​an office is the nerve center of a company and, therefore, it is necessary to use colors that stimulate creativity and productivity. In this case the most suitable colors are the warm ones, i.e. colors such as red, orange, yellow…

In break areas, i.e. all those areas where you allow yourself a few moments of relaxation and detachment from the exhausting rhythms of the working day, the most recommended colors are the cold ones such as blue and light blue.
