HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND................
from another thread:
by Robc from another thread.A graphic designer friend of mine tells me that you need to be very careful about using black. It can send out a lot of negatives about the web site. Like other colours which send subconcious signals. i.e. white is for purity. Black is for the dark side. Red is warm but also dangerous and blue is cold and un-inviting etc etc etc.
If you hung one of the most outrageous Joel Peter Witkin's on a white wall, would it be less emotionally "dark" than if it were hung on a black wall?
I have always found color "meaning" theory very simplistic and suspect.
