This study emphasizes the importance of choosing colors that attract more customers. It is possible now to recommend solutions that help to achieve the functional and esthetic dimensions of colors in a way that goes with the development of the new building materials that are used in designing the internal space in commercial centers. Finally, this study offers some recommendations that can serve commercial centers in Palestine and Nablus city in particular in a way that reflects the importance of colors in designing the internsal space in commnercial buildings.
