The presentation that I really enjoyed was Megan's speech about the meaning and influence of the different colors. It's an idea that I've always been aware of but never really thought about. I think this is probably true for everyone. We all intuitively know that colors affect how we feel, but we might not automatically associate a specific color with a specific feeling. I also think it is funny that supposedly red makes us hungry and therefore many fast-food places use red in their logos and signs. Who knew?! I remember when I was in middle school, someone did a presentation on how people associate certain letters with certain numbers as well as certain colors, but it seems that no one really knows why people make these associations. Megan's presentation reminded me of this. I would like to do some more research on this because as an architect (or anyone in the design field), it's incredibly important to be aware of this.
