The Psychology and Emotion Behind Color in Web Design

I was a really bad designer when I was just getting started in the mid 2000s.

Really, there’s no other way to say this.

And it’s not that I was completely useless with the tools or anything. The problem, as I see it now, was somewhere else.

Colors.

To summarize my shortcomings in one sentence; I used certain colors not because they were in tune with the goals and the audience that the site was trying to reach, but because I simply liked them.

For instance, I’ve liked shades of green most of my life. So guess what … my early designs were predominantly green. No other thought went into it.

“Hey, I like green, people like green, so the site should probably be green!” – is not a good way of thinking about color … go figure.

But then I realized that perhaps the choice of color deserves a little more thought when working on a new site. Perhaps it’s not something that should be decided upon during a three-second brainstorming session. Perhaps it shouldn’t automatically resemble the color scheme used in the site’s logo either. Perhaps this is a more complicated issue.

More so, perhaps color is one of the most effective and powerful tools that a designer has at their disposal after all.

And the science seems to confirm this. Various studies indicate that color arouses specific emotions. And if that wasn’t enough, it turns out that different colors are connected to different emotions in different cultures.

So how to find your way around all this? How to use the right colors that will help you achieve a specific goal on a specific website, targeted toward a specific audience? That’s a lot of questions. Let’s try answering some of them today.
