Yellow Houses: Far Beyond Color

When considering painting a house a certain color, we immediately focus on the aesthetic issue and possible combinations with other colors and materials.

But there is another aspect of color that also needs to be considered when making a choice. We are referring to the feelings and emotions that colors can convey. Who says it's color psychology?

According to this science, dedicated to the study of colors and their impact on human psychology, all colors affect the brain in some way, positively or negatively, depending on how they are used.

It's no surprise that advertising has been using this resource for years to sell products and conceptualize brands. In the case of yellow, it is always closely associated with the sun. Ask any child to draw a sun – they will automatically color it yellow.

And what does the sun remind us of? Light, warmth, care, receptiveness, joy, summer and good mood. Therefore, a yellow house facade can convey the same feelings. However, yellow color also has a more 'problematic' side, so to speak.

The color is associated with fear (remember the expression 'yellow from fear'?); it also includes an alarm signal for the brain (traffic lights, radiation symbols and others).

Therefore, it is always important to balance the use of colors – either with other colors or by relying on lighter or darker shades – in order to control these 'side effects'.
