Color me Happy

August 15, 2010

I love colors. It makes me happy. I know that seem to be such a shallow thing to say but for me its not because frankly it is true. In my opinion people always gravitate towards color first among other things. Maybe it is a form of intuition? Even in our childhood we always demand colored picture in the books that we read.

I acknowledge the fact that lines do express certain feelings like power, stability, and others but an idea or design cannot be complete without color which imparts a wider range of emotions. Our class discussion about color left me with a deeper understanding of the power color have. Color is such a symbolic and therefore communicative element of art and design. Because it represents people's emotions and also influence it. As designers, who communicate our ideas through our design and also use it to satisfy our client's expectations, color is a valuable and essential design tool to us, a tool that we should always use to our advantage.
