Colors I hate.

Feb 17, 2009

pinkshorts-1

PINK
I'm not sure why I hate the color pink. I do like HOT pink on the RIGHT people.

HOT pink signage might work for the right occasion. But pink sweat suits, ski suits, blazers, awnings, dress shirts, ( a pink tie might fly on the right person. ) Pink 57 Caddy's are very HOT.

maroonfly-1

NAVY BLUE & MAROON

Yes, some colleges can pull these colors off = they need to perennially win championships to pull these colors off, however. A navy pee coat is cool. But these colors broadcast old, cigar smoke, narrow minded, uniforms. A navy sport coat on the right people. But never a maroon coat = ushers, flight attendants. I don't think I would fly with an airline that had maroon in their graphic standards manual.

beigegolf-1
BEIGE

Not to be confused with off-white or creme. We know what I’m talking about. Envision a beige fridge. Beige blazer. A beige car with a beige interior! The color even sounds bad. I can’t think of one designer who I respect who gets off on beige. Seriously.
