What are the other countries color association besides the US? You mentioned in parts of Asia white symbolizes death. My thoughts are if an Asian designer designs for a Russian, African, European, etc. client or visa versa what would be the other countries color associations......

I've tried to find those associations for countries outside the US and there isn't much out there to be found.

One thing you could add to the article is more of a definition about the different color schemes. Let people know what an complimentary scheme is, etc.

Thanks Vangogh,

Funny you say that, I'm actually going to be doing some follow up articles on the topics you mentioned and those articles will link to that article I did in this post

If you're interested I've written about color in the past and perhaps can generate some ideas for you

Color Theory, The Color Wheel And Color Schemes
How To Use Color To Enhance Your Designs

The first post above is pretty much what the title says and sticks mostly to theory. The second goes through a variety of colors and talks about the associated meanings they convey (mainly from a US perspective, but some thoughts about other countries). It also goes into the different color schemes and talks about a little about what each scheme communicates.

Maybe there's stuff in both that could help with your articles.
