Color does not add a pleasant quality to design - it reinforces it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Color is a very critical thing. I've found that architects don't like colors. Engineers too. And so somebody has to stand in. Because this is the finish of it. It is the emotional part of a structure.
Color in certain places has the great value of making the outlines and structural planes seem more energetic.
Color is so intuitive.
Color is a matter of taste and of sensitivity.
Good design keeps the user happy, the manufacturer in the black and the aesthete unoffended.
Colour does not make so much difference. Look at the Bach Chaconne: There is not one dynamic mark in the whole Bach Chaconne. Colours do not make so much difference.
You reason color more than you reason drawing... Color has a logic as severe as form.
I use color in terms of emotional quality, as a vehicle for feeling... feeling is everything I have experienced or thought.
Good design is making something intelligible and memorable. Great design is making something memorable and meaningful.
Good design to me is both appearance and functionality together. It's the experience that makes it good design.
