Design Blog Journal: Colour Of Nature

Colour is also considered as one of the element of art. The colour of an object can be seen when white light is shone upon the object's surface. The surface of that object will reflect some colours, absorb the others and the final result that can be seen with our eyes is the reflected light.

There are a vast amount of different colours that exist in this world, and different colour carries different meanings and has different functions. Every single individual thinks differently, thus, it is normal that everyone has his/her own favourite colours which may not be preferable for other individuals.

As for me, I have two favourite colours, which are blue and white.

The main reason that makes me fall in love with these two colours is because of the sky, which is considered the colour of nature to me. Whenever I look at the sky, I can feel a sense of calmness and peacefulness deep inside of me. However, not only when the colour blue and white combines together, I also like these two colours individually.

BLUE

Blue colour produces a calming effect by slowing down human metabolism. Hence, it is always associated with tranquility and calmness. Blue is often used to symbolize trust, loyalty, confidence, wisdom, intelligence, faith, truth, heaven and so on.
However, I prefer light blue more. Too much of blue will create the sense of melancholy, sadness and negativity. Therefore, a colour can actually have different effects on an individual when the tones of colour varies. To make sure our favourite colour helps us in our daily life such as help us in relaxing, we have to be sure of what kind of colour will really helps us in achieving the positiveness we want.

WHITE
White colour is an inherently positive colour and it normally used to symbolize purity, innocence, goodness, light, cleanliness, faith, sincerity, softness, perfection, and so on. White colour can affect our mind by promoting the feelings of fresh beginnings and renewal, assisting in clearing and cleaning of obstacles, and also encouraging the purification of thoughts. The non verbal messages that white colour may convey match the objectives that I am trying to achieve in doing anything. For example, being perfectionist to make sure all of my things being done as perfect as possible, being totally sincere to the people around us, including friends and family, and also being positive-minded when facing challenges and obstacles in life.
