There's a good date in the cafe.

A better place for dating and waiting for people should be a cool coffee shop.

If it has nothing to do with color, the taste of coffee also has a relaxing effect. Waiting for your dream lover in such an environment, I believe you will not be upset after waiting for a long time.

Incandescent lamp at home

Under the blue and white fluorescent lamp, people will feel that time passes quickly, while under the warm incandescent lamp, they will feel that time passes slowly.

Therefore, if it is purely for work needs, it is best to do it under fluorescent lights.

Incandescent lamps can make people feel restless for a long time.

On the contrary, the bedroom is more suitable for using warm lighting equipment such as incandescent lamps, which will create a leisurely space of its own.

An experiment on the influence of color on time perception

Two people do an experiment, let one of them enter the red room with pink wallpaper and crimson carpet, and let the other person enter the blue room with blue wallpaper and blue carpet.

Don't give them any timers, let them come out of the room after an hour by feeling.

As a result, the people in the red room didn't come out until 40-50 minutes later, and the people in the blue room didn't come out until 70-80 minutes later.

Some people say that this is because the red room makes people feel uncomfortable, so it feels particularly long.

There is indeed this reason, but it is not entirely true.

The main reason is that people's sense of time will be disturbed by the surrounding colors.

Fast food restaurants are not suitable for waiting for people.

Fast food restaurants generally give us the impression that there are many seats and high efficiency. The customer will leave after eating and won't stay long.

Some people like to meet friends in fast food restaurants, but in fact fast food restaurants are not suitable for waiting for people.

This is because the decoration of many fast food restaurants is mainly orange or red. Although these two colors can make people feel happy, excited and stimulate their appetite, they can also make people feel that it takes a long time.

Waiting for people in such an environment will become more and more impatient.

Using color psychology to create an ideal company meeting environment

In modern society, all company employees have a lingering worry, that is, long meeting time.

Anyone who has a meeting for more than two hours will feel bored.

Therefore, the company's meeting room is best decorated with blue as the keynote. For example, looking at blue things with blue curtains, blue chairs and blue meeting minutes will make people feel that time passes quickly, thus creating a sense of compulsion to end the meeting quickly.

In addition, because blue has a relaxing effect.

In a relaxed environment, people are more likely to put forward creative ideas or constructive suggestions.

Therefore, in environmental psychology, it is also suggested to decorate the conference room in blue, which can not only make the long meeting compact, but also enrich the meeting content and discuss it more efficiently.
