Why So Many Control Rooms Were Seafoam Green over at a designer's substack.
Not just control rooms either! Accelerator vaults were full of this color. So were many printing presses. And metal bookcases. Couldn't get away from that stuff. So what color do I paint my place's interior? "Wind Song," a very light seafoam green. What color do I paint my place's exterior? A similar light gray-green "Sea Glass."
OK, at least it is sort of calming. I also note that I picked none of these colors, relying instead upon various female influences around me. Only however after I mock-threatened to paint the place a nice 70's goldenrod yellow when they wouldn't step up and advise. Had to motivate them somehow.
Maybe they're all trying to tell me to cALm tHe F! dOwn!
