CR05

I have already learned about color in a painting class, but I didn't really know why it was essential. Color is used to create visual impact and it is also important in directing the eye of your audience. We also learned about environmental design which went well with the introduction to Cradle to Cradle. The 6 stages of product life seems pointless in the end, because once the person uses the product it will just be thrown away having an ending consequence. It was very informative to hear that designers are trying to make green products, and take steps to eco-designing. I hope that one day all designs will be eco-friendly.
