Colors do not have a tongue to speak, ear to listen, nose to
smell and eyes to watch. Still, they are the best communicators for
whatever medium they are used for. Be it a car, purse, clothes etc.
Ask yourself, what do you prefer in summer? Obviously you would opt
for wearing light colored clothes and dark in winter because you
know what are the meaning and purpose of colors.
Colors are the most effectual way of imprinting subliminal messages
in the minds of the viewers when it comes to logo as well. There is
a whole theorem for companybrand identity; let is have a look on
color theorem to make things clearer.
Yesterday, I had a pile of
free pharmacy logos on my desk. I conducted an
analysis and found out that there are certain similarities in all
of them the colors which does not mean that they were all the same
with respect to color combination.
What I found was that there was a frequent use of one or two colors
in all of them that were blue and red. In the next second, I was on
my computer to search for the color preferences and meaning in for
business logos.
There I found out that blue in medical industry corporate identity
is used to depict trust, loyalty, wisdom, intelligence that a
patient should have in medical industry. Light blue colors are also
an effective way to provide a soothing and ensuring effect which is
the main objective of medical business.
Now, let is talk about red, though red is an intense color but
frequently utilized in
pharma company logo, why? The mere reason is it
ensures strength and power to heal the patients. Moreover, it also
has the ability to hold the attention of the viewers. It strikes on
the first glance, this is why; it is commonly preferred in most of
the corporate identities by professional graphic designers.
Hence, it is not necessary that you have to utilize words if you
want to speak, you can do this by the proper use of colors in your
business brand identity.
