Why yellow, orange, and red?
“Because yellow, orange, and red are colors of brightness and cheerfulness, representing a positive outlook and confidence. They symbolize the light of the sun, bright and powerful, stimulating movement in both body and mind, imagination, and harmless fun.”
Using yellow and orange tones in exterior decoration
For bright shades, they are suitable for use on public buildings that require prominence and fun, such as shopping malls, stores, and restaurants. Meanwhile, if the brightness of the color is reduced to a lower reflective value, such as mustard yellow or brick orange, it can be applied to modern-shaped homes. There may be areas accented with lighter colors to avoid the colors appearing too harsh, creating a decorative piece in Tropical Resort or Tuscan style, generating a warm atmosphere infused with the scent of blooming bright flowers.
