FAQ
Is color psychology scientifically proven?
Color associations are shaped by culture and context more than universal biology, but consistent patterns exist within a given market, which is why the same hue families recur across similar industries.
Should I choose a color based on psychology alone?
No. Psychology is one input alongside brand differentiation, accessibility, and category conventions. A color that fits the psychology but looks identical to every competitor can still be a weak choice.
