One thing I noticed today as we were biking around looking at buildings and sites in Copenhagen was the use of color. Bright Colors, varied colors, a whole rainbow of colors used on buildings and structures. I am so jealous of this. It seems in the US we like our buildings gray, or beige, or some variation of brown. I hate that. I like bright colors, I wish we used them more in our buildings, public spaces and even web sites.
In the past I’ve been told that when I use bright colors, it makes people think of children’s things. Well you know what?
Fuck kids.
I’m taking color back for adults.
