The world of design is becoming more and more dangerous with the increase of legal issues and ‘fair use’ policy entanglements. It was only two days ago that I tweeted about an interesting blog post on ‘who owns your portfolio’, and now another issue of copyright has been brought to my attention.

I have often remarked on the importance of words for a designer; how they can effect the perception of a product and how they can be used to support and encourage an idea. What is equally amazing though is the sheer power that colour can have on a person, and on how we literally see the world.
Most designers are vaguely familiar with colour theory. Each colour automatically evokes an emotional (and sometimes physical) response.
