How Much Does Color Define A Logo? Seeing a logo that's been in your life for years all-of-a-sudden rendered in different colors can be as jarring as a friend's sudden dye job. They just don't look like themselves. And if they just don't look like themselves, how does this change the way we relate to them? In a recent experiment, Brazilian graphic designer Paula Rupolo swapped the color schemes of competing brands’ logos, revealing much about the power of designers' Pantone choices in determining identity. To overturn that first wave of identification, Rupolo washed the McDonald’s logo in the vegetable eco-green of Subway. "These are all big and famous brands," Rupolo says. Also interesting and a bit curious: The only instance of commenters to Rupolo's original blog post preferring the "after" effect was when she switched Yahoo’s to Google’s color scheme, though the company's color purple is a particularly divisive one--and it's hard to hate on a rainbow of primary colors. Different rules apply to soft drinks, however.

Seven Rules for Managing Creative-But-Difficult People - Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic by Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic | 3:00 PM April 2, 2013 Moody, erratic, eccentric, and arrogant? Perhaps — but you can’t just get rid of them. In fact, unless you learn to get the best out of your creative employees, you will sooner or later end up filing for bankruptcy. 1. 2. The solution, then, is to support your creatives with colleagues who are too conventional to challenge their ideas, but unconventional enough to collaborate with them. 3. As novelist John Irving said, “the reason I can work so hard at my writing is that it’s not work for me”. 4. 5. The moral of the story? 6. 7. A final caveat: even when you are able to manage your creative employees, it does not mean that you should let them manage others. Editor’s note: We updated the headline on this post April 10 to reflect that its intent is to discuss a small subset of people who happen to be both creative and difficult to work with; not to imply that all creative people are difficult.

Welcome to Colorcom - The Color Consultant Experts Colours In Cultures Inkfumes Paul Cézanne Paul Cézanne (US /seɪˈzæn/ or UK /sɨˈzæn/; French: [pɔl sezan]; 1839–1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavour to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century. Cézanne's often repetitive, exploratory brushstrokes are highly characteristic and clearly recognizable. He used planes of colour and small brushstrokes that build up to form complex fields. The paintings convey Cézanne's intense study of his subjects. Cézanne can be said to form the bridge between late 19th-century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism. §Life and work[edit] §Early years and family[edit] Femme au Chapeau Vert (Woman in a Green Hat. Going against the objections of his banker father, he committed himself to pursuing his artistic development and left Aix for Paris in 1861. §Cézanne the artist[edit] §Optical phenomena[edit] §Death[edit]
