business interiors – the colour blue. How to use your brand colour in the workplace
Building brand awareness is just as important for small businesses as it is for the major brands. A great way to increase brand recognition is through your customer facing business interiors whether that is a store, boutique or office.
Create an interior that projects your brand’s personality and message. To not do this you will be missing out on an important marketing opportunity and it could negatively affect your brand.

in the news… Tesco ditches its own branding colours
Not something you see every day, a major brand taking the decision to remove their own branding colours from their own products.

is blue her majesty’s favourite colour…?
This year the UK is awash with celebrations marking Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth’s amazing 60 years on the throne. Vogue Magazine has put together a colour review of her outfits from the past 12 months. Today just happens to be her 86th birthday, so what better day to look at her year in colour.
business branding colour … meaning of blue
What message is being conveyed when a brand choses blue as their primary branding colour? Psychologically blue presents trust, integrity, communication. However, use the wrong tone of blue and it’s the colour that can make a brand appear cold, aloof and unapproachable.
