Use of Color at the New Stadium AKA Britto Sucks

[Party]

Concessions stands are already taking shape – complete with the bright-colored tile that is part of the ballpark’s signature style. There will be four color quadrants – blue, yellow, red and green – borrowed from Spanish painter Joan Miro’s palette that will easily help fans identify where they are in the ballpark. Already, blue tile has gone up in concession areas.

From the seat selection guide:







The sales center is decorated in a lot of white with a mixture of these colors and a lot of modern furniture (think IKEA). Everything in the mock-up suite was white. It looks like they hired the same people who design Macs and iPods for the furniture.

Purple? Really?

[KnuckleBalls]

This is going to be a hideous park.

[wanks1212]

You clearly don't appreciate fine art.

[Party]

It's not purple it's blue. Colors degrade when you scan them.

[wanks1212]

What kind of blue? More of a carolina tar heel blue or darker blue?

[Party]

Darker shade of royal blue.

Try a nicer scanner?

What kind of blue? More of a carolina tar heel blue or darker blue?

Clarification: The blue used in the graphics is Carolina Blue. The scan is pretty close to the actual thing. The darker royal blue I was referring too was in the stadium renderings (which looks purple in the scan).

This is going to be a hideous park from the perspective of one guy out of 5 million people that will visit it at one time or another.

Fixed it for ya.

[Madman81]

I think the fact that he made the comment implies that it's from his perspective.

[Namaste]

yeah OK thanks for clearing that up madman

[Madman81]

I believe you're the one who tried to clear it up with a failed attempt at being a smart ass
