bbc radio wales interview…wearing yellow gets you noticed Pippa Middleton style
The thing I love about radio, they are really tuned into the news of the day, as it’s happening. As a colour expert, I never know when I’m going to be called to comment on the colour stories of the day.
So it was no different last Friday morning when I received a call from Jason’s researcher, the lovely Angela asking if I could be on air in an hour to give my insights on some news stories relating to colour…

children in need’s pudsey bear… yellow the colour of happiness
Were you one of the millions watching the BBC’s Children in Need last night? What a fantastic charity. I love how they focus on making a difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.
You can’t help but notice their main brand colour. You only have to look at the charity’s mascot Pudsey Bear to see they use the colour of happiness!

business branding colours… what are you saying when you wear yellow
The bonus of branded uniforms means every interaction a member of staff has with customers, and the general public is an opportunity to gain additional brand exposure. For some businesses, there are additional considerations which lead to the introduction of additional colours.
business branding colours… meaning of yellow
When you choose a colour or colours for your brand, do you know what they are saying? Businesses that choose yellow as their primary brand colour, are they all expressing a personality of happiness, optimism and friendliness? And when yellow is incorporated with another colour or colours, you can completely change the meaning of your brand identity without even realising.
