Does desk color actually affect how well students concentrate? Should I buy gray, blue, or wood tones?
Yes, color matters. Neutral and muted colors work best—light gray, soft blue, or natural wood tones. Avoid bright red or yellow (too stimulating, increases restlessness) and all-white (shows every mark and stain, creates glare). Research suggests cool, muted colors reduce anxiety and improve sustained attention.
