How Colour Temperature Shapes Our Mood

Have you ever noticed that bright sunlight can instantly boost your energy and mood, while dim lights can make you feel sleepy? Indoor lighting has a profound impact on our mood and overall well-being. From boosting productivity to creating a relaxing atmosphere, the way we light our homes can significantly affect our emotions. The secret behind these nuances lies in the color temperature of the light.

Advances in LED lighting technology have expanded the possibilities of light color. Color temperature is measured using degrees Kelvin (K), as a way to describe the warmth or coolness of a light source. From a cozy 2700K to a refreshing daylight-like 6500K, color temperature plays a major role in shaping our experience.

Light therapy studies have shown that light hue has the ability to influence our mood, heart rate, and circadian rhythm. Our biological response to different light intensities results in the release of hormones. Higher, cooler color temperatures trigger the release of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that influences our mood and energy levels. This phenomenon is similar to the natural effects of the sun during the day, which can enhance focus and alertness.

As the sun sets and the day comes to an end, cooler color temperatures trigger the release of melatonin, a hormone that promotes relaxation and sleep. Adjusting the right light hue to the right time of day can enhance alertness during active times and promote relaxation and rest in the evening.

Dig deeper and we can see how lighting can transform a space. In a bedroom, dimmable warm light creates a soothing haven, while bright, task-focused lights illuminate the kitchen. A living room blends accent and indirect lighting to become a welcoming space for social gatherings. For an efficient home office, brighter, cooler lights will enhance focus. By staying consistent with the purpose of each room, you can create an environment that elevates the experience and taps into the body's natural responses.
