There is no doubt to state that colours unconsciously shape many aspects of our daily lives. They influence people’s attitudes towards their surroundings, as well as having an overwhelming effect on a person’s comfort level in a particular situation. When deciding on a colour scheme for a restaurant, think about the type of mood you want people to be, think about what kind of food is going to be served and what kind of customers are most likely to go there. CovetED brings you some inspiration for you to discover how to use colour!

Different colours promote different moods. For instance, warm colours such as yellow, red and orange are very stimulating colours and tend to raise appetite. They promote a positive attitude and outlook on surroundings.

Neutral colours, like grey, black, brown, and white, are taken as elegant and passive colours.

Other more subtle colours, like pastels, green, or blue, are considered cool colours and are known to promote a more reassuring and inspiring mood. But, at the same time, blue can be an appetite suppressant, which is probably not what the chef is looking for! This makes blue an unusual colour for restaurants, as you will notice.

Finally, you will find that purples and golds are the colours of royalty and luxury, the ideal choice for a kind of gourmet or delicacy cuisine.

Colours will reflect and determine the overall experience people expect at the restaurant, how they fit with the unique characteristics of the restaurant is a very important factor in interior design.
