| I wonder if anyone would care in-case it was colorless.. |
Gaze at the image on the top. Now, without opening the google website an another tab, try to spell out the colors in the logo in the exact order..
You use it on a daily basis, but you will still find it hard to recognize the colors on its logo in the exact sequence. Before you open the website in a new tab to check it out, I am gonna reveal it. The color sequence is Blue-Red-Yellow-Red-Green-Blue. The colors are vibrant and give the logo a cool and attractive look. But have you ever wondered why the color combination is so? Read on and don’t let your brain go nuts over this question.
Before you knock my brain off for wasting your precious time, I confess that the following are just based on my assumptions and none of them have been proved right or wrong.
Why are you wearing a red colored shirt? Well, that’s my favorite; I didn’t think over it, I don't have any other. These answers are obvious. The colors and its sequence may just be an instant idea or may be the creators’ personal favorite or something else which is of course, none of my business. But I find it hard to keep myself from digging into these matters.
Reason 1: The Official Answer
“There were a lot of different color iterations”, Kedar says. “We ended up with the primary colors, but instead of having the pattern go in order, we put a secondary color on the ‘l’, which brought the idea that Google doesn’t follow any rules”. No doubt, the primary colors are essential for any art and it may be the reason Google looks beautiful.
Reason 2: Nature of colors
The first three letters ‘g’ ‘o’ ‘o’ are colored Blue, Red and Yellow respectively which represent the primary colors. But while dealing with software development. The obvious choice is RGB,Red, Green and Blue and thus the color of the next three letters.
Reason 3: Realtion with numbers
Lets take a look at the first five letters. The first letter is colored blue, the third is yellow and the fifth is green. Red, the color which has been omitted at the primary place possible because of its repeatation. Blue may be the beggining of the next such series. This is the least possible reasons and Google might not have given a thought about it. By the way, one is neither prime nor composite. So, this reason stands cancelled.
Well, thats all. I have made my brain go topsy-turvy over this question and here are three of my findings. My hunt for the answer is not over yet.
