The serious ‘selling power’ of colour
You may think colour is just child’s play. You may think colour is just a visual experience. In fact, colour is an incredibly powerful phenomenon used to influence us every day of our lives. It can influence our mood, behaviour and feelings; making us move quickly, feel relaxed, take action, eat more and spend more.
It may seem hard to believe colour can have such an impact on our everyday lives. This is probably down to the fact the majority of us are only 20% conscious of the colour choices we make.

Buy your own Kolormondo
If you are looking for a great colour starter tool but find flat colour wheel diagrams not that easy to understand, then the Kolormondo 3D globe might be just the thing you are looking for.
Ideal for school children or those who want to learn and understand more about colour. It’s also proving a popular educational tool for teachers and colour specialists who teach basic colour theory in an easy to understand way.
