Color has the ability to give life to things that would otherwise be considered bland. A simple change in color can change the whole feel of an outfit or a place.
Colors are associated with different feelings and activities. These are often determined by the occurrence of a color in nature and one’s location. Different colors affect people in different ways and have the power to influence attitudes.
“Bright colors, you know, they kind of boost my mood a little bit and make me more excited,” junior Dakoda Whitaker said.
If colors are associated with positive things, they will draw people in more often than colors that are associated with negative things. This can affect the choices that people make.
“Usually colors dictate a lot of decisions I make,” junior Stuart Cook said, “Like if somethings a weird color, we aren’t gonna eat it.”
The things that people associate with different colors are generally rooted in their childhood and their own experiences so everyone views them differently. However, there are general feelings and items that most people associate with each color.

Red

The color red is bold and attention-grabbing. It reminds people of dramatic and intense experiences because of its association with blood and injury.
