Winter and summer fight with depression can color

In early December, the Moscow school children were allowed to draw on the walls. The unusual master class graffiti on environmental issues was held in the natural reserve "Sparrow Hills". As a result, a gray concrete wall 200 meters pupils turned into a real forest green. Such an event is not only aesthetic, but, as it may seem strange, the therapeutic effect. It has long been known that the winter blues called "greyness" of people surrounding environment. According to researchers, the most cheerful people live in tropical countries with a rich color palette, and the pessimists more often found in northern latitudes. "Perk" will color therapy. "Treatment of color, though not universally accepted therapy, but can not call it false - sure a corresponding member of the International Academy of Psychological Sciences, associate professor of social psychology at Irkutsk State University, Ph.D. Sergey Byshlyaga. - Color Therapy is focused on the emotional sphere of man. It's like music. " A man must surround himself with bright colors as often as possible: indoors and outdoors. "The colors warm colors - yellow, orange, emerald green, red - fill the space with light and warmth. Try to update the palette of your home: buy a bright curtains, cushions, bed linen or simply plates, and you will feel recharged with energy and optimism "- says art therapist Elena Smirnova. For more great effect "paint" you can not just separate parts, but the whole interior, causing colored images to the suspended ceiling or acquiring unusual furniture. For example, a collection of LunaBlocks, created by French company Lunatic Construction, reminiscent of the famous children's designer Lego. Used here as bright and clear colors, as in children's toys. Rainbow can not only interior but also exterior. For example, a group of companies PROPLEKS, Russia's largest producer of PVC window profile of Austrian technology, offers 17 color options for the profile. "In the process of lamination on the profile is applied to a special film, as a result of the construction takes an original look. In addition, we now offer brown profile. This product is designed for double-sided lamination shades of color film "wood", and avoid white gap at the opening sash window "- said Leo Minullin, director of advancement PROPLEKS. Not only windows, but the house where they are installed, can be colored. One of the first such practices were used in Norway, a country where so lacking of natural colors. Here, entire blocks are painted in bright colors: yellow, blue, red. In Russia, a similar experiment has already been applied in Anadyr. And in any other city people are able to take the initiative and make your home "colorful." "There were cases when people appealed to the Department of Architecture and Urban Development for permission to repaint the house a different color - says the chief architect of Boris Smolensk Lyadenko. - We only support such initiatives, and, if tenants are willing to raise money for the painting and to do this, we agree to help, give advice and, of course, resolution. " Vivid elements of the city's architecture will eventually create a happy mood every inhabitant in any season.
