Oh my gosh, neon orange is like a lightning bolt that jumps straight into your brain and says, “Hey, I’m here, and I want to get things moving!” It wakes you up, makes you feel all electric, almost like a sprint to a bright art exhibit. Teal, though, is a whole different vibe—soft, cool, it wraps your thoughts in a calm blanket and makes you want to stretch out and think things through. So, yes, colors do steer us: orange pulls us toward action, teal pulls us toward reflection. But if you mix a little orange in a teal room, you get that sweet spot where energy meets calm, like a splash of paint on a calm canvas—exactly my sweet spot!
