Designers often develop associations with different colours. Some are instinctual, and some are cultural. Actually, they're probably mostly cultural. Here's mine:
- Gray: Nothingness; Insanity
- Black: Mystery; the Unknown
- Green: Change
- Red: Excitement; Danger
- Blue: Freedom
- Pink: Safety
- White: Clean; Emptiness
What are some of your colour associations?
And did you know that each hue has a frequency? I suspect that the colour combinations we know and love -- the relationships, I mean, like primary, tertiary etc -- are analogous to musical chords.
Does anybody know how many octaves are in a rainbow?
So that's why deaf people can watch music. That's cool.
