Red and green: that is young, fresh and comfortable, a typical colour-combination for spring. As all warm colours the female pink is associated with something round. It fits our imagination if pink is combined with things, which also have the qualities soft, smooth, small, sweet, light: a little girl in a pink dress, a pink soft toy animal. It may attract attention if pink - against the conventional expectations - is combined in the following ways: instead of being combined with "litte" - combined with "big" (the advertisement of the Austrian railway association showing pink elefants was a real eye-catcher) instead of being combined with "nice" - combined with "bad": a pink devil (See the big success of the "Pink Panther") Pink : colour of the gays |
