Color psychology is the study of how colors influence human emotions, perceptions, and behaviors, examining associations such as red with urgency or excitement and blue with calm or trust. It is applied by marketers, designers, and branding professionals to influence consumer response, as well as by therapists and interior designers seeking to shape mood through environment. While popular in commercial contexts, the field draws on a mix of cultural convention and psychological research, with some effects being more scientifically robust than others.
