Leatrice Eiseman Colour Lecture

On Tuesday 11th August the Jossi Design team went to a lecture on colour by Leatrice Eiseman. The main topic of the lecture was on the emotional reaction to colour and the best applications for the various colours. The talk ended off with an insite into the upcoming colour trends in advertising, interior design, fashion and graphic design.

It was a very interesting lecture and makes you think of colour in a more technical and emotional way. It is interesting to note how and why advertisements we see in magazines or on TV use colours to capture our attention or create an emotional creation to the product.

A special 'thank you' to Plascon who sponsored the event and invited the Jossi Design team along (free of charge so we were really greatful to them for that). There was also a presentation of Plascon's 2010 Colour Forecast which puts together some amazing interior colour combinations and to produce enjoyable and comfortable interior scenes.

We really enjoyed every minute of the lecture and we look forward to any future events being held by Plascon. We do recommend you take a look at Leatrice Eiseman's Colour Blog http://eisemancolorblog.com/ and Plascon's website http://www.plascon.co.za/
