Color isn’t just decoration—it’s sensation. In this episode, I’m going to talk about what actually happens in your brain when you see color, from the way light wavelengths trigger your nervous system to how your emotional memories get tangled up in hue. Red doesn’t just say “bold,” it activates prepares your body to take action. While blue slows your heart rate.
If you’re a designer, a creative, or an independent thinker trying to communicate visually in any way, understanding the basic process behind color perception can help you make choices that feel more aligned, more intentional, and more emotionally intelligent. It’s not about personal preference. It’s physics, biology, psychology, and so on.
If you’re curious how color quietly directs attention and emotion, before your audience ever reads a word, this is for you.
