Color Theory: Be Calm With Blue

by BrightNest
(IC: blogger)
Unlike warmer colors such as red or yellow, which trigger strong emotions, blue has a calming effect and is generally associated with stability and depth.
Companies will often use the color blue to promote a sense of purity, which is why you frequently see blue on products like water filters and cleaning supplies. Blue is also a very attractive color to men, who often associate it with expertise and precision. This may be one of the reasons that blue has become a go-to color for corporate America (think IBM, Chase and Jet Blue).
