![Neutral color schemes are proven to limit visual interest in an interior space and have a draining, depressing effect on people. In the past year, the neutral aesthetic has become popularized in all areas, and in the classroom it can affect education. “In schools, traditionally, we use colors that, like, create a calm environment,” Fashion Design teacher Levi Harbeson said. “Color is really good because it stimulates the brain and it stimulates thinking. In my room, I not only try to have a lot of color, but you also want to make sure those colors are constantly changing. So you have new student artwork on the wall, or you rearrange your posters, or you move stuff around, because changes to the learning environment keep students engaged.
