Conflict

The greens and greys of hospitals and office corridors are depressing and cold. Natural wood, sunlight, bright colours are warm. In some way, the warmth of the colours in a room makes a great deal of difference between comfort and discomfort.

Resolution

Choose surface colours which, together with the colour of the natural light, reflected light, and artificial lights, create a warm light in the rooms.
