Classic colour

Filed under: Technology, Thoughts — dnw @ 7:27 pm

Where’s all the colour gone Apple?

Came across this interesting article in the Metroplolis Magazine (a design mag) focused on the use of colour in Apples computers.

I had one of the first Macs they talk about so it was a nostalgia trip for me (and a nice one now I’m trapped in WindowsLand due to work).

It finished on an interesting note:

People are no longer satisfied with good looks and ease of use. They expect all that, and an emotional connection too.

Apple’s done well to foster this ‘emotional connection’ via music with the iPod. I’m wondering perhaps we might see a colourful return? After all, what evokes emotional connection besides music….oh yeah, colour!
