Warm colours such as reds, yellows and oranges are known to increase appetite and are often colours chosen for a restaurant. Red stands out as a colour which induces impulse eating, so if you want your guests to order the range, starting from appetisers, red is your choice. Green too is another popular colour for eateries as the colour denotes ‘freshness’; while green may be inappropriate for a steakhouse, it works well for a sandwich shop or fresh salad bar. Likewise in order to make that overall look last over time, visit the best construction materials suppliers in Galle when buying supplies, to ensure the quality and vibrancy of your paint lasts over the years.
