Power of the Color Red"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>A Color That Invokes Extreme Feeling<\/h2>\n<p>Color has a strong impact on each and every one of us, even if we don&#8217;t realize it.\u00a0 With an understanding of the impact of color, you can make your audience feel a certain way, this understanding is known as Color Theory.\u00a0 According to Color Theory, one of the most striking colors is Red, but it&#8217;s also comes with a high-risk.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Red is a Great Color to Use<\/h3>\n<p>Red is a great color to use when you understand exactly what feelings it invokes.\u00a0 It creates a feeling of Strength, Power, Passion, and Love.\u00a0 This is why you often times see the use of it in a high energy environment such as a gym.\u00a0 Subconsciously, every single person in the gym is being effected by the color around them.\u00a0 It is often associated with Valentine&#8217;s Day, because it produces a feeling of Love and Passion.\u00a0 If your brand is trying to portray these feelings it&#8217;s a great choice for you.<\/p>\n<p>Red when used sparingly can be very striking and eye-catching.\u00a0 In a study done by <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/blog\/tabid\/6307\/bid\/20566\/the-button-color-a-b-test-red-beats-green.aspx\">HubSpot<\/a>, they showed that a Red call to action (CTA) button outperformed a green CTA button by over 20%.\u00a0 Nothing except the color of the button was changed, and yet there was an obvious increase in traction.\u00a0 This is another example of the effects of the color red.<\/p>\n<p>Strangely enough this color can also trigger appetite, which is why a lot of the big food brands choose a red-heavy color scheme.\u00a0 McDonald&#8217;s, Wendy&#8217;s, and Burger King all use red in their branding.\u00a0 This is likely because over years and years of research they noticed the effects of the color red.<\/p>\n<p>Red demands attention.\u00a0 That&#8217;s why a lot of street signs use the color, such as the STOP sign.\u00a0 When you&#8217;re out on a drive, there is a lot to see, but you can never miss that striking red on the side of the street.\u00a0 It demands your attention, and demands you listen to it.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Red is a Bad Color to Use<\/h3>\n<p>Along with red being a color that promotes strong positive feelings, it can also invoke some negative feelings.\u00a0 Anxious feelings can be brought to the surface, and leave you feeling a bit unnerved.\u00a0 Red is also the color of anger.\u00a0 When people are really angry they often describe it as &#8220;seeing red.&#8217;\u00a0 If your company or business wants to promote tranquility, kindness, or obedience; Red might not be the color for you.<\/p>\n<p>This idea can be seen in hospitals.\u00a0 Although they are often associated with being a place of sadness or high anxiety, you&#8217;ll never see one painted red.\u00a0 Rather, they are white.\u00a0 Which promotes peace and cleanliness.\u00a0 A hospital, although it may inherently be a stressful place, it does not want to harbor those negative feelings.<\/p>\n<p>Same applies for an office, you don&#8217;t want an office full of subconsciously anxious workers.\u00a0 You want them happy, creative, and productive.\u00a0 However, a blank-boring white office can have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedpro.com\/solutions-az\/how-wall-murals-lead-to-a-better-workplace\/\">negative effects<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>Red is a risky color to use, it can create an environment of anxiety and put everyone on-edge.\u00a0 However, when it&#8217;s used with a proper understanding of Color Theory it can the perfect option for your business.\u00a0 Red is a strong color and can be visually striking and eye-catching when used well.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding Color Theory is important for any business.\u00a0\u00a0How are you using Color Theory to your benefit?\u00a0 How could you be using it better in the future?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Color That Invokes Extreme Feeling Color has a strong impact on each and every one of us, even if
