Colours

Colours
Which colours we like most?

We might also like certain colours because of their emotional connotations. Yellow, for example, is often seen as a ‘happy’ colour, while darker colours can be more mellow and reflective.

There are also associations between colour preferences and gender, especially among children. For instance, already by the age of 2.5 years, girls in Western cultures seem to have a preference for pink objects, while boys tend to avoid pink. The roots of these gender differences are complex (likely reflecting a mix of biological and cultural factors) and are still being debated.

So there are a lot of factors at play, and there’s unlikely to be a single explanation for why we like the colours we do.
