ADVANCED Colour Theory Makes Designs SUPERIOR! (With Real Examples)
We need to ask that question, does colour theory actually make your graphic designs better, or is it utterly useless? As a graphic designer, we need to take colour seriously and try to apply it to our designs.

If you're a logo designer, a Ui or Ux designer, or just a general graphic designer, colour and colour theory should be something you need to take seriously and try to apply to your work. However, colour theory is a bit more advanced than people tend to think. It isn't so black and white (pun unintended).
Hopefully by the end of todays Satori Graphics video, you will better understand colour theory and design theory, and can then apply it to your graphics and workflow.

I've heard that word spanner I believe first in Star Wars though Han Solo asked for a hydro spanner so that may be some sci fi invention. Then later in the online game World of Warcraft. The inventive Goblins and Gnomes use Spanners. This is from the internet, and I can't say for certain how arcuate it is, and yet I don't think it clarified to me as to why they exactly called it that unless it's like for spin? I heard it can mean stretcher, roughly. 'Spanner' came into use in the 1630s, referring to the tool for winding the spring of a wheel-lock firearm. From German Spanner (n.), from spannen

There's lots of talk about how red grabs out attention because it incites thoughts of passion and/or violence, and is often used as a cancel button, or to signify something to avoid. But I think it's also important to remember that lots of fruits signal their ripeness by turning red. A leading theory for why primates evolved to see red when most mammals can't is that it helped us find edible fruits more easily. I thought of this when you used McDonald's as an example. Red is often appealing to us because red means ripe.

It is worth noting that the is almost always a inherent physiological or cultural reason that we react to certain colours. Red indeed heightens our awareness as a direct response to the fight or flight mechanism. This is because red is the colour of blood. Picture this scenario, early man is out hunting and stumbles across a fresh killed beast, the sight causes several immediate responses - firstly hunger, and then a hyper alertness to their surroundings as they now have to be aware of what predator may have caused the carnage at their feet. So essentially the colour red makes us feel hungry and slightly uncomfortable. So where are these responses best used in a commercial setting? Fast food restaurants, where you will see many restaurants use the colour to evoke hunger while also making the customer’s heart rate to rise so they begin to feel uncomfortable and want to leave - and thus we have ‘fast’ food. Other sensory experiences are all brought into play to speed up these commercial encounters such as cold, laminated surfaces, audio tracks and of course lighting. As for red also signifying love, this too relates directly to blood, as aroused people experience an increase in blood flow as it is sent to certain parts of the body and can result in swollen reddish lips and flushed cheeks - physiological responses that gave birth to the make up industries.

As a woman I'd avoid text on chest for the left cover and chin on text for the right one. Putting the text blocks higher on the left side of left color and both of them lower for right cover would have been on point. Are the bar codes standardised on that side in your country? If not, I'd probably have gone for placing them in her back rather than front. There's a subconscious notion that an object before a person looks more hindering than one in her back. Since the picture has a subtle sense of being mid-motion. That said: these were just some thoughts that jumped out of me in a nostalgic moment of going into designer mode, from my time in highschool (German school system). You did not ask for advice and this is just a quick example graphic. So please, by all means, take it with a grain of salt. It was a good educational video on the topic. I could not help and ask myself though, if us seeing things these ways doesn't have more to do with years of design choices building on initial experiences from living in nature. Aka if we'd change the rules for long enough, I wonder of our physioligical responses would change aswell. 🤔

Interesting thought in the last part. I can imagine that the response can possibly change, but that would take a looooong time, maybe thousands of years. But the principles how we came to the way we react to colors are the same I guess, it's all serving the purpose to survive in this world. But since we fundamentally face different challenges nowadays, maybe it's already slowly in the process of changing. But as you said, we still base many design choices on our primal instincts routed in nature, so we are basicly just reinforcing these.
Sorry for the hot take .. but if you make some slides wanting us to focus on a photo for some explanations, I would reconsider putting a bright moving neon background. Especially if the photo is not saturated and contrasted. I couldn't concentrate. You gave good information in this video and I listened, thank you! :)

Women see a different spectrum than men hence the colour choice. Red, black, and white together is very powerful and it was no accident that a certain political party, back in the 30's, chose this combination along with an angular symbol. If you study some of their visual propaganda you will notice they were masters of the game on many fronts.

I'm curious if there have been any modern follow-ups to those color studies or if they've been replicated elsewhere. I'm sure culture can have a major impact on color perception. For example blue and pink as the traditional boy and girl colors were completely swapped in the 19th century, and linguists have found that almost universally, when languages first develop, all colors are categorized as shades of black, white and red.
@DynastyUK
Жыл бұрын
Researchers have found that different cultures and societies can have distinct associations and interpretations of colors. These associations can be influenced by a variety of factors, including historical, social, and environmental contexts. Regarding the specific example you mentioned, the association of blue with boys and pink with girls is a relatively recent phenomenon. Prior to the 20th century, these color associations were not as prevalent or standardized. Cultural shifts, marketing strategies, and changing societal norms have played a role in shaping these color preferences over time. In terms of linguistic categorization of colors, the Berlin and Kay theory is often referenced. This theory suggests that there is a universal pattern in the order in which colors are named and categorized across different languages. According to this theory, colors are categorized into basic terms in a specific sequence: first black and white, then red, followed by either green or yellow, and so on. However, it's worth noting that the extent to which this theory is applicable universally has been a subject of debate among linguists and researchers. As for modern follow-ups to color studies, there continues to be ongoing research on color perception, color psychology, and the impact of color on various aspects of design, marketing, and human behavior. Color theory remains a fundamental aspect of graphic design education and practice, and designers often explore the emotional and psychological effects of color in their work.
