Both girls were praying to be assigned to the blue team, as the school lore says that blue team always wins. As luck would have it, one got on the blue and one got on the yellow team. This year, given our interest in color, I was really paying attention. And as it turned out, Yellow team won at the lower school; and Blue team at the upper school. Both girls were disappointed, as neither was on a winning side. Color of the uniforms only goes so far... - nana Tue, 18 May 2010 06:23:06 +0100 http://www.nana-design.com/newsletter#comment-7 Thanks for sharing your commentary on the color blue. (What a savvy way to market your services!)I know that color impacts us in various ways, and this was a pleasant reminder. I'm gravitating more toward blue these days, but didn't attach any meaning to the change until now. Wishing you blue skies ahead. - Jackie Richmond Mon, 17 May 2010 08:51:49 +0100 http://www.nana-design.com/newsletter#comment-6 Your article on the 'Sway of Color' is incredibly fascinating. I had no idea that the color blue was linked to so many uses of pacification and stimulation. As an architect I am prone to use more neutral colors as I always understood those colors...light grey, beige and natural colors as more soothing. With this new information I will certainly investigate ways of bringing some tones of blue into my palette. Thank you. Beautiful website-stunning! - judy lee Sun, 16 May 2010 19:22:18 +0100 http://www.nana-design.com/newsletter#comment-5 The sway of color is an interesting piece. I'm amazed how oblivious I've been to the effect that colors have on us. I'm definitely looking at things differently. I think I'm going to test the blue light in the fridge and eating from a blue plate - there's definitely a few pounds I'd like to trim off.

I had heard that people who are arrested by police and are aggressive and enervated calm down if you put them in a pink room. And my bedroom was painted venetian red (a pinkish tone I told the thing about pink and aggression to my boss at the time and she remarked that maybe that was why I was often late getting in, because my room was blissing me out so much I couldn't get up. But I liked the item about blue both from the point of view of an informational tidbit, but also as a nice promotional reminder that, hey, we're out here doin' this and that. It's a gracious way to do that. - J.W.Stewart Wed, 12 May 2010 09:24:26 +0100
