Green Logos, Green Art - Tranquility & Health

Written by Sam Anderson

 

The human brain is programmed to respond to every color in a different manner.  Effects of green color include feelings of tranquility, vitality, health and freshness and cleanliness. Green is mostly used in eco-logos in order to endorse the environment-friendly vibes. 

 

Green is also known as the ‘environment-friendly’ color.  For the full story, please click: http://www.logoguru.co.uk/blog/color-psychology-in-logo-design/

Sustainability and the Extreme Measures to Get There

Most projects now demand (or at least request) some level of sustainable design thanks to the owner, financier, or design team. Despite the economy, the value of green construction starts showed a 50 percent increase in 2010 compared to 2008. And data is beginning to prove the benefits of sustainable building: higher rents, more productive workers, happier occupants.

Clients will continue to expand their desire for sustainability in projects as more bottom-line benefits come to the fore. Expect the essential characteristics of sustainable design to continue being defined as well as a convergence of what are now considered sustainable and socially responsible design and development.

Can Art Join the "Green" Movement?

Many artists utilize recycled and re-used materials in their work. Take a look at Joan Roberts-Garcia's piece "Leaves #1" a Mixed Media piece measuring 87" x 58", an assemblage of photographs, plywood, wire mesh, and various other fibrous materials. This piece rents to business and professional clients for $245 per month!


So yes, Art can join the "Green" movement of sustainable products.  For more information on renting or leasing green paintings or sculpture please call us at (888) 440-9260; we offer a free initial consultation on placing artwork in your space!
