Healthy wallpaper? There’s a new wallpaper designed to encourage wellbeing. Developed based on color psychology and research studies, the brand Feathr created Essence Wallpaper to arouse 11 mood states. 

For example, a study from Mid-Sweden University found that blue light affects humans similarly to caffeine, and research from Durham University shows that red improves competitiveness. After compiling the research, the healthy wallpaper designs were created.

Each wallpaper has a subtle ombre effect. As a result, the focus color segues into a complementary color, which is supposed to encourage a smooth flow into a new mood. Below are just a few examples of the healthy wallpaper.
