Interesting read. Ever consider how cultural interpretations of color could impact these symbol standards globally?
Isnt it time the industry adopted universal color coding & graphical symbols? It’d simplify things globally.
too rigid color coding is limiting creative freedom in graphic designing?
Isnt it strange how were so reliant on universal symbols yet theres no global standard for color coding?
Isnt it more strange that we expect global standards in a diverse world?
Just wondering, arent standard color codes subjective considering color blindness? Can we rely on symbols alone?
Color blindness is not the norm. Symbols work, but color codes are universal.
