How do we organize and perceive the world around us? According to neuroscientists, our brains often process color before anything else. As we scan the world for information, they say, color perception is the first thing we use to help us comprehend and respond to our environment.In fact, the human brain already has an inherent inclination to perceive information as naturally organized patterns. That’s why when we arrange information such as “to do” lists into understandable patterns like color schemes, it ensures that our brains are able to more quickly process the information and also increases the likelihood the tasks will be completed.
From work files to email to homework to closets, color is a great way to stay organized, boost productivity and breathe a sigh of relief!
