WHITE PAPER OWN THE ROOM
It’s no secret that the colour choices we make for our interiors
have a dramatic effect on how we feel. But while we all know the
benefits of a carefully considered palette, how do we go a step
further and connect spaces with people?
In a specially commissioned white paper, colour scientists Professor
Stephen Westland and Soojin Lee from Leeds University, joined
the Harlequin team to reveal the theory behind how our colour
choices shape who we are.
Their findings explain that the use of colour in any interior affects
both our physical and emotional wellbeing. Armed with such
incredible insight, we’ve been hard at work devising innovative
ways to ‘Crack Your Colour Code’.
Our purpose is to bring the joy of colour into every home,
inspiring people to be bold and discover their own unique interior
style, creating a space that reflects self-expression and emotional
happiness.
Truly owning the room requires more than picking designs we
admire. It looks for an emotional understanding of why we’re
attracted to certain colours, schemes and styles. It confirms that
our interiors matter.
Our colour code is the key, now let’s own the room.
