"The Colors of Well-being collection is thoughtfully selected to inspire and impress, complementing today's interior design trends and creating a sense of calm, comfort and connection for the people within these rooms," said Rockfon's manager of architectural sales and business development, Diana Hart, CSI, IIDA. "People who feel connected also are happier, more satisfied, and have a greater sense of well-being."

Color plays a vital role in enhancing the architectural form of a room and in influencing a person's experience inside it. It can spark creativity, increase productivity, or make a room seem bigger or smaller.
