Explore the psychology behind the tranquil color Aquamarine
Aquamarine inspires feelings of relaxation, weightlessness and purity. This cool tranquil blue promotes peacefulness & trust, inspires patience and also helps to calm the senses.
Aquamarine was first discovered in 1723 in Siberia but then in the early 20th century it was discovered in Colorado.
SALT magazine identified one of the biggest trends for Spring/Summer 2019 to be Tropical Tuti Fruti colors like Aquamarine.
As we settle into the peak of summer, we truly are drawn to colors that evoke coolness & relaxation.
Summer for most is an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life so we naturally search for moments of peace as our body’s need this time to decompress & recuperate.
