Colours and their significance <\/h2>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Red indicates danger. It stimulates the mind and raises blood pressure. Las Vegas is the city of red neon lights as it makes people gamble and take risks under the red lights. People working in a red environment work faster but they make more mistakes.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Blue is associated with peace and relaxation. Blues complement cool and pastel colours<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Black is considered a heavy and depressing colour. Use of black as the dominant colour should be carefully considered.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Brown conveys stability, simplicity, and comfort. It can be considered a drab colour as well.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Green is easy on the eye; it has a calming effect. It is popular in hospitals<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Gray is a very conservative colour and conveys practicality, reliability and responsibility.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Pink is considered a feminine colour.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Purple conveys spirituality, royalty and mystery.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Orange is a warm colour. Used in small amounts, it can make a site interesting and fun.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Yellow is an eye-catching and cheerful colour.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 White is the colour of purity and cleanliness.<\/p>\n
