by Sam Anderson

Yellow Logos:

Yellow is another color that evokes hunger among humans. Other reactions of yellow include warmth, positivity, Happiness, Joy and buoyancy. The best feature of using yellow in logo design is that it is bright and catches the eye of the audience. A prime example of yellow color in logo design is McDonald’s golden arches logo that increases appetite among the people.

HGTV's How to Install Picture Rail Molding

Why make holes in the wall when you can display this way?

Picture rail molding provides both visual interest and a way to display pictures without making numerous holes in the wall. To determine how much you need, decide how high you want to install the molding and measure the perimeter of the room at that height, and then add an additional 10 percent to the measurement. Note that picture rail molding is typically installed within 12 inches of the ceiling (although @artrentandlease we've installed at lower heights to fit a "look") and shouldn't be installed above any window or door casings.

Color Psychology in Logo Design - Red

Written by Sam Anderson, from logoguru.co.uk

Color psychology is crucial in logo designing and can make or break your logo design. Ever wondered why do we feel hungry every time we see McDonald’s logo or Pizza Hut logo? Beside the fact that they are fast-food restaurant logos, the red and yellow color induces your appetite even though you aren’t hungry.

Red is the strongest of all colors. It evokes a variety of strong emotions like aggressiveness, passion, strength, vigor and vitality.
