Mairlyn's Photos - June 5 2025 - Your Favourite Colour?
A worldwide study has revealed that blue is the most popular colour. That's across 10 countries in four continents. Why are there such big surveys? Because colour influences our moods, eating habits, who we date, and more. And the more is the world of marketing.
Look at that chart! Everything in one picture. Well, except there's no Canada. Oh well, who would we consider ourselves most like? Especially these days as we steer away from the U.S. Would it be Britain, Germany or Australia?
We're considered to have similarities with Australia - British Commonwealth, federal states, constitutional monarchies large landmasses and small population, also with open economies, strong trade ties and a focus on natural resources.
And then we're close to Britain with that shared history, Commonwealth, monarch, parliamentary systems, but we are a diverse geography and culture with an indigenous population and role in government.
Compared to Germany we are considered to be similar in terms of strong economies, generous social systems and environmental awareness. But we have differences in culture and social customs.
Of course, Norway, Sweden and Denmark are also missing from the chart. Maybe we're more like them.
On the other hand, what is the impact? The most popular colour is likely to be blue. It is really only when we look at the second most popular colour that the US, China and Thailand stand out as preferring green. Poor Hong Kong, all alone with purple.
Lots of blue to be found in peeling paint and grunge.
