February 17, 201313 yr Hi, Sorry if you think its a stupid question . I noticed most site owners (esspecially in tech and travel) like to use the colour blue in their website? Why? Any specific reason? or just they liked it.
February 17, 201313 yr Different shades promote different meanings/emotions a royal Blue could be perceived as superiority or a lighter shade blue promotes the feeling of the sea/openness/confidence & dark blue means intelligent, rich, elegant, old-fashioned...There's some good readings actually on the use of blue in design: http://finearttips.com/2010/08/the-color-blue-use-the-hidden-meaning-for-art-design/ http://www.bourncreative.com/meaning-of-the-color-blue
February 17, 201313 yr There is a good reason for using blue, grey, black and white. Some people are colour-blind and either don't see red or green or mix them up.
February 17, 201313 yr Interesting discussion. When I studied multimedia design we were taught that the color blue gives the impression of trust and credibility. That's probably why so many banks (and facebook) choose blue in their design. Colors is indeed a very important tool of communication.

Never knew about blue being an impression of trust and credibility. Guess that's one thing my teacher didn't tell us about. Thanks for that bit of information.
February 18, 201313 yr Yes I have also read that blue and white are meant to be well trusted and used by lots of big companies
February 18, 201313 yr Author Thanks you all................ Know i mean the shade of color used in sites. Thanks again!
February 19, 201313 yr Blue is the best color for travel websites because it represents sea, sky and freedom...
