police and crime commissioner elections… do you think they are after the female vote?
Today, Thursday 15th November is the day for the Police and Crime Commissioner elections. For the first time ever, the public across England and Wales (excluding London) will elect a police and crime commissioner.
You can’t fail to notice the intense pink used in their election information. Do you think are after the female vote?

did you know there were eleven basic colour terms?
When Brent Berlin and Paul Kay introduced basic colour terms in their 1969 book ‘Basic color terms: Their Universality and Evolution’, it was the start of a new way of thinking about colour terms and colour naming.

London Olympics… wayfinding. helping you find your way using colour

business branding colours… what are you saying when you wear pink
Companies who have a staff uniform are looking to gain maximum brand recognition and brand awareness, and it helps the staff be easily identifiable.

This not only instils these positive characteristics in their staff but to project this to their customers too.

business branding colours… meaning of pink
When I started researching for this article, I didn’t realise I would find so many businesses that use pink as their main branding colour. On one hand this may reflect an increase in women going into business or more female related services.

in the news… the pink backlash
Little girls love the colour pink. Mothers either love it or hate it; so much so they will either buy everything for their daughter as long as it’s pink or avoid it like the plague.
