If you choose black and white, it’s considered a formal or elegant choice.

Color choices are calculated decisions since so many colors have been made readily available to us. Shortly after a couple gets engaged to be married, the color scheme of their wedding becomes of utmost importance. When painting a room, you are not just choosing a color – you need to know how lighting changes the color, how the color makes the space bigger or smaller, and don’t forget to think about the mood the color is setting!

Businesses have to think about color when creating an advertisement; colors are chosen in order to attract as many customers as possible. Therefore, it is important to know how the general public interprets certain colors, not just, “I like green so everybody MUST like green.”
