How Colours Affect Lighting Design | ARTiculations?

Colours are like invisible helpers that change how light feels and looks in a room, just like how your favorite blanket changes how cozy your bed feels.

Imagine you're playing with flashlights in a dark room. If you shine a red flashlight, the room feels warm and calm, like sitting by a fire on a chilly night. But if you switch to a blue flashlight, it suddenly feels cooler, like being outside on a spring day.

• Bright colours, like yellow or white, make a space feel bigger and more lively, just like how your room looks when you open all the curtains on a sunny day.
• Dark colours, like purple or navy, can make a space feel smaller and cozier, like snuggling under a heavy blanket on a rainy afternoon.

Lighting designers use these colour tricks to create different moods in places like theaters, homes, and even playgrounds. It’s like giving light a costume to match the story it's telling!
