Welcome

Like many of the websites I build, Cymbolism is a tool that I wish already existed.

The theory that associates colors with moods and emotions has existed for a very long time. Whilst many studies have been conducted over the years to study the relationship, they only serve to provide a window into a powerful tool for any designer.

Cymbolism hopes to break open that window and provide valuable information for designers when creating their next project. Just how a color is perceived changes over time, and Cymbolism will keep track of those changes, making sure designers keep in tune with their targets.

We’re putting the finishing touches to the website, building up the word database, but we’d love to hear any thoughts you may have.

This blog will serve a dual purpose: informing visitors as to the latest and future developments on Cymbolism; and providing news and information on the theory of Color Symbolism, and Psychology.

    What also would be interesting is how colour plays a role in different cultures. Ndebele people in South Africa write love letters to their partners by stringing beads that mean something according to the colours. Indians wear white in mourning, red for the bridesmaid etc etc.
