July, with its bright days, warm sunsets, and summer mood at its peak, has many things in common with the color of the month, don’t you think? Orange has an energy all its own! At COSMOS LAC we have captivated this energy in 4 special shades, but before we get there, we have studied this vivid color.
The Fascinating World of Orange
July is the perfect month to celebrate orange, as it naturally appears in the stunning hues of sunsets and sunrises, and in vibrant shades of summer fruits and flowers. It is indeed a color you can smell, taste, see, and feel, as it is associated with all these summer experiences, from a juicy apricot to a cool spritz and from sunrise till sunset.
Orange is a color that blends the passionate energy of red with the joyful brightness of yellow, resulting in a hue that is both stimulating and cheerful. It symbolizes creativity, enthusiasm, and adventure. It’s a color that encourages social interaction, boosts energy, and enhances mental activity. This makes it an ideal color for stimulating environments where innovation and communication are key. Artists like Vincent van Gogh have used orange to convey energy and emotional depth. In modern design, orange is used to draw attention and highlight important elements due to its visibility and vibrant appeal. In fashion, orange signifies confidence and individuality.
