Colour connotations

My first magazine cover uses a shade of purple for the title. This stimulates imagination, meditation and artistic qualities. Many of the cover lines are red, which increases physical energy, vitality, stamina and passion. Red enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It is easily visible, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. It is a colour found in many national flags.
The second magazine uses a red title and border. Red enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It is easily visible, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. It is a color found in many national flags.
The third magazine uses a blue background. Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, truth, and heaven.
Blue is believed to help the mind and body. It slows human metabolism and makes a calming effect. Blue is connoted by tranquility and calmness.
Red is used once again in this magazine, red is a bold colour which increases physical energy as the speed of other bodily functions.
