The color itself is directly impacting those who see it, and in this respect, architecture differs from architecture that does not use other materials. A particular building's architecture can make us feel good or not so good. The purpose of a building, its architecture, is as well as the aesthetic elements, fulfill an important role. In the aspect of construction and creating or re-creating spaces, the colors for the paints that we choose directly impacts anyone who sees them.
If we are painting older, deteriorating or small spaces you'll not only make them look new, but also help to make them feel more comfortable with the use of a more warm-colored paint. Colors have opposite effects on your emotional states, creating calmness and happiness when you see them, but excitement and enthusiasm when you wear them. our main aim is to protect the buildings from weathering, which is the reason we use paints.
Sustainability of Paints
In this ever-changing world, we should also be more watchful and show concern to how we, as humans, are affecting our world and the environment around us. We should all be responsible with the materials that we are using whether for our everyday lives or for the creating and building—this includes the paints that we use. Opting for environment-friendly materials. Most plants are used for their natural ability to dissolve and bind rather than to alter the surface characteristics of natural paint. These typically have low VOC (volatile organic compounds) compared to other non-organic paints. Getting access to energy from different sources results in improved health outcomes, and using renewable resources to the full extent possible. Innovative materials are now in existence that have been tested and shown to have no net impact on global warming. Unlike other paints, which are derived from non-animal sources, these also use various plant and mineral ingredients. They are formulated, thus requiring minimal processing. To start with, many of the ingredients are derived from renewable resources, such as linseed and citrus oils, helping to limit greenhouse gas emissions over the life of the whole life cycle.
For those buildings that need additional insulation, paintings are now available that can greatly help to keep energy costs down while increasing the amount of savings. A carbon footprint is usually a very significant specifier, since greenhouse gas emissions come from transportation, processing, distribution, and manufacturing processes and disposal. There are paints in light shades helps performs best and more effectively, and light colors reflect about 50% of solar radiation. In general, darker colors are better at absorbing solar radiation than light colors. Nonetheless, it is only made up of infra-red light, which makes up 51% of sunlight. Since traditional black inks are not absorbers of infrared light, special colors which reflect infra-reflect infrared are substituted for them, black can be used to help keep the substrate from absorbing heat. As a result, the paint material would be a heat reflective, even in dark colors are used. This technology helps to fight the effects of the urban heat island phenomenon.
