This past week we studied about color, I decided to focus on the contrast of colors when I commented on the discussion board. It's so helpful to know what colors attract the eye and how color combination plays such an important part.
Within the Jason Beaird book many aspects of color are mentioned including the psychology, value, theory, primary colors, scheme, and application.
I remember being in an art class and discussing the how in a painted room blues and purples make a person feel cold while the yellows, oranges and reds makes a person feel warm. The psychology of color is an important consideration to website design technique. For example, if someone was designing a website for a little girl the typical color association is either so
ft pastel colors like pink, or bright vibrant colors but not many would design a website for a little girl with blacks and browns because these colors are not associated to a stereotypical girl's tastes. The book goes into detail about more of the individual color associations. How can these colors be combined or left to one general color scheme? These are all important considerations.
