Design - 5 - Color

Today our lecture was about color and it really causes you to give you color scheme a second thought when you're reminded of the connotations colors get. Black is a very strong, heavy color that at the same time kind of falls into the background and gets a little boring. Red is a passionate, fiery, exciting color, but can also be linked to caution and anxiety. I still think these work well because the black follows the idea of a silhouette and the color of ink used in calligraphy, and the red is of course the color that the Japanese associate with the sun.
