[Design-team] The philosophy dispute on colour

[Hristo Petkov]

Hi,
It sounds interesting. Is there any justification of this or test results confirming this or some feasibility study on the issue.

It is interesting to know what it is associated with (on a mass scale, as you claim).

In my view the most disgusting colour is 'jungle' green (dark green to yellow) (but it is on the opposite side of the colour spectrum).

Regards

I just share experience. I was part of a team that committed a violet poster
for a student event several years back. We though it looked great. Once all
the promo material was printed and pasted everywhere the general public
disagreed. After the event someone who did this stuff professionally told us
we had violated one of the unwritten rules of the profession when we made this
choice. There are just no positive associations with violet in the general
public. Even blood-red is a less negative color.
