James So Clara, how important are colours?
Clara They’re
extremely important. We live in a colourful world and colours affect our home,
our work, our mood, everything.
James What’s
the world’s favourite colour, do you think?
Clara Definitely
blue. It’s the colour of the sky and the sea. It’s difficult to imagine a world
without blue.
James Indeed.
And what does the colour blue represent?
Clara For
most people it’s a colour of security and stability. Thirty-three per cent of
the world’s leading companies have blue in their logo – companies like IBM,
Samsung and Ford.
James Interesting.
Is it also a popular choice for cars?
Clara Not
really. White is currently the most popular followed by silver. White is
perceived as a sophisticated, modern colour particularly because of Apple and the
iPhone.
James I
suppose it’s still traditionally the colour for wedding dresses as well?
Clara In
the Western world it is, but in Asia it’s the colour associated with death.
James I
see. So, what colours are worn at their weddings?
Clara In China and Japan the bride traditionally wears red.
James And is it true that a red car costs more to insure than
other colours?
Clara No,
that’s a myth. Red is a colour which is full of passion and enthusiasm. It’s
said that a red front door brings good fortune to the people in that home. As
for all colour cars, the problem is if you don’t stop at a red light.
James Yes,
very true. Which brings us to green. What products are associated with green?
Clara It’s
the colour we associate most with nature, obviously. It’s a very relaxing colour
and stops you feeling nervous. Politically it’s linked with ecology and helping
the planet.
James And
that leaves just one of the primary colours. What can you tell us about yellow?
Clara Most
countries in the world see yellow as a happy colour. It represents sunlight. In
fact, it’s the easiest colour for humans to see. That’s why school buses and
taxis use it. It’s also viewed as good value for money – rather like orange.
James Orange
is good value for money?
Clara Of
course. That’s why certain supermarkets or budget airlines have it as their
colour. It’s also a warm colour. If you paint walls in a light orange colour,
people will actually feel warmer. Tests have shown an increase of one or two
degrees.
James That’s
amazing. Well, we’ve covered most of the colours. Anything you can tell me
about purple?
Clara It’s
the second most popular colour for females, after blue. It’s a mix of red and
blue and is liked by creative people. It also represents wealth and royalty in
a lot of countries.
James And
last of all, black.
Clara Black
is mysterious. It’s not really a colour according to some people. When Ford
started to mass-produce cars in the United States, he offered every colour,
provided it was black! Don’t forget London taxis are black and a black cat
brings good luck – but only in Britain.
James It’s
been great talking to you, Clara. Thank you very much.
