PHOTOGRAPHY TECHNIQUES: USING FAVORITE COLOR TENSION

Photography Techniques: Using Favorite Color Tension

Color balance is created through our visual perception. If only one color is applied in a room, this will create tension. For example, if you decorate a room in the various shades of green, eventually your eyes, or rather brain, will start to project reddish spots. By the way, this is the very reason why surgeons wear green when carrying out operations. This is the reversed color experience. After looking at the color red of blood for a certain concentrated amount of time, they will begin to see green spots.

Favorite Color Tension for artistic design of colors in a room

In order to avoid this one-sided and most dangerous affect, especially when they have knives in their hands, they wear green and the surgery is also painted green. When complementary colors are visible in a space, this creates balance in the brain. There is no need for it to create and project the missing complementary color which causes tension. This process is called the after-image and is in itself a fascinating feat of the brain.

An artistic design of colors in a room, based on free interpretation and intuition, may be okay for rooms not requiring longer sojourning or special welfare caring. Such rooms may even look great according to the talent of the designer and will be fine for easy going usage. However, rooms that are required for any special form of welfare, such as schools, hospitals or offices should incorporate color harmony and their psycho-physiological principles, free of tension. Tension creates environmental conditions that are contrary to harmony.
