Is colour in interior design just an aesthetic choice – or a therapeutic tool?
Colour psychology isn’t some “new age trend” – its roots can be traced back to ancient times.
And in the mid-20th century, thanks to Swiss psychologist Dr. Max Lüscher, colour gained solid scientific grounding. His famous Lüscher Colour Test (1948) showed that by choosing (and rejecting) certain colours, we can gain a very precise insight into a person’s inner state.
Since then, colour has been used not only in art and marketing, but also as a therapeutic tool. In interiors, it has the power to:
✨ relax and reduce stress
✨ uplift and energise
✨ increase focus
✨ stimulate creativity
Our preferences for certain colours are never random – what we’re drawn to, as well as what we reject, reveals a lot about our inner world.
💡 That’s why colour in a space is never “just decoration.” It can be a tool that helps us restore balance and even kickstart processes of inner transformation.
👉 If you’d like to explore what colours say about you – try the Lüscher Colour Test (it’s free online) and share in the comments:
- which colours you felt most drawn to,
- which ones you rejected,
- and whether you agree with the interpretation.
I’d love to hear your experiences. :)
