The power of colour: these colours give a positive boost

2022-01-06

Colours have a wonderfully positive effect on your mood and interior. They affect your emotions, your mood and even your behaviour. For a fresh start to the new year, we have listed three energising colours for you. You will find them in our mood-boosting bouquets this month.

Orange – warm and energetic

Winter calls for warm colours. Orange is one such warm colour that gives your mood a positive boost on a drizzly day. According to colour psychology, orange stands for cheerfulness, creativity and the colour radiates a vital energy – makes sense since orange owes its name to the Spanish naranja, meaning orange. Need more orange tones around you? With this cheerful colour around, in a striking bright shade or soft pastel, you are sure to get that energy kick.

“A bunch of flowers with a cheerful colour palette is a lovely boost for your interior during dark winter days. Orange combined with shades of pink is a powerful colour combination. Together in a bouquet, these two rich colours provide an extra strong look.” – Ferdinand Belfor, Art Director

Pink – playful and passionate

You probably know pink as the colour of romance and femininity, but this colour has many sides to it. This soft shade has playful associations, like energy, cheerfulness, sweetness and youthfulness. More intense shades of pink often refer to humour and cheerfulness in an interior. The ideal colour to add a touch of fun at home.

"A colorful bouquet on the table gives your interior a luxurious and sometimes even a whole new look: it's a kind of an affordable renovation." – Ferdinand Belfor, Art Director

Purple – artistic and decisive

For centuries, the colour purple has been used as a symbol of style, luxury, intelligence and wealth. In addition, the colour also stands for creativity, decisiveness and comfort. As a result, you often see purple appear in lots of interior trends. The colour gives a room a special and artistic touch. Pantone has named the colour Very Peri – a beautiful deep violet shade – colour of the year. So, we think we will be seeing a lot more of this colour in 2022. And guess what? Our Darling 'Frosty Pastels' is packed with beautiful purple hues such as violet, lilac and lavender.
