RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Colours are very important for children as a discovery tool of the world and a communication tool which offers a different way of talking about how we feel. Colour is emotional: it is an immediate way in which we experience the world. Colours affect moods. While perceptions of colour are somewhat subjective, some effects have universal meaning. Children have positive reactions to bright colours and negative emotions to dark colours. Children's emotional reactions to colours have prompted a designer to create bright and vibrant colour combinations for the backpack collection.
CHALLENGE: There are several factors to consider when choosing a textile base that can accurately showcase the colours' shadows. Firstly, the material itself plays a significant role. Some fabrics tend to absorb colour, resulting in a duller appearance, while others reflect light, creating a brighter and more vibrant effect. It is crucial to select a material that allows for accurate colour reproduction while maintaining the desired level of shadow definition.
