Do you ever feel like colors give you therapy? Or that certain colors effect you differently? This site cymbolism.com, is the ultimate tool in communicating a feeling or mood with color!
This site attempts to quantify the association between colors and words, which can help designers communicate better with clients, to help achieve certain emotional effects. Since colors are believed to have specific meanings, this will help us create environments unique to our clients, and help develop moods and emotion desirable to the client's needs.
It is really fun to see what they have associated with each word, and they (Suffolk Software) are tracking all the color associations over time to help designers produce intended effects on the inhabitants, and help bring the gap together between designer/client communication.
For example, what color do you think of when you here the word:
Moment
Gay
Bliss
Profit
Pure
Sex
Corporate
Launch
1) Moment
Number one answer ~ Soft green
2) Gay
Number one answer ~ Pink
3) Bliss
Number one answer ~ Yellow
4) Profit
Number one answer ~ Green
5) Pure
Number one answer ~ White
6) Sex
Number one answer ~ Red
7) Corporate
Number one answer ~ Grey
8) Launch
Number one answer ~ Orange
With a tool like this, clients can effectively use a word to describe what it is they want, and the designer will understand their language. What colors do you associate with the words:
warm, safe, clean, plenty?
Isn't this fun?!
