drtanner:cazador-red:eternal-dannation:jhenne-bean:forlovefromfear:diasporanpapi:youthful-pills:ichigo-hiyoko:mintymaiden:gildatheplant:Literally any other colour would’ve been a better choice guys.I’d like to point out that the colour red has more positive than negative meanings.im sorry but this reply absolutely killed mered can mean whatever the heck you want it to mean, that is never going to change that this straight up looks like they DRAGGED A BLOODY BODY ACROSS THE FUCKING FLOOR Hi fun fact, colors do have meaning and there is a legit thing called color theory. Red does has more positive connotations than negative like the @mintymaiden said. Red is associated with more love, lust, passion than blood and death just like the chart shows you but If you want, here’s a link for you to check it out yourself. Also, check out “The Designer’s Dictionary of Color” by Sean Adams. Have fun learning somethingXoxo -Designer What is Color Theory?I think y’all are missing the point here.You can theorize to Nebraska and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging a corpse aroundI like that the presumption here is that “No One On Tumblr Has Heard of Color Theory, Let Me Explain in Depth” rather than simply acknowledging that the VISUAL EFFECTS of this particular color choice, applied in the manner it was, can still amount to “this is a hospital and that looks like blood” like, color theory doesn’t exist in a vacuum. If your design of choice for Blood Red Paint is asymmetric splatters and sploches against the wall, or in this case, a snail trail on the hallway’s floor, an infographic won’t override the viewers’ instinct. this post is the perfect summation of tumblr’s reading comprehension and critical thought abilitiesThis thread really does illustrate the actual problem that lead to this happening, I should mention. This decor choice was absolutely discussed and decided upon by a committee, and they absolutely talked about colour theory and all of these so-called “positive meanings” when the decision was made. This is literally how they came to the conclusion that painting a wobbly, smeared trail of blood red on the floor of a hospital corridor was an A+ Excellent Idea™ and completely missed the very obvious issue with how it might look when actual people saw it. You pretentious theory-obsessed fucks are the exact reason this happened. -- source link
