CPNA TO FOCUS ON INFLUENCE OF
BRANDING & COLOR
ICMAD SESSION: COLOR
YOUR WORLD
Cosmoprof North America (CPNA) introduces a special session in collaboration with the Independent Cosmetic Manufacturers and Distributors (ICMAD) called, “Color Your World: Your Brand in Color.” This session will provide a glimpse into the psychology of color, the factors controlling our cultural pre-dispositions to certain colors, and the associations with color combinations that designers evaluate as they develop a brand’s visual elements. Furthermore, this session will elaborate on how the package can become an integral part of the brand’s appeal through unique collaborations with artists and designers.
Join CPNA and three industry experts as they discuss how color/design plays an important role in packaging design, and how it can ultimately affect what consumers' purchase. Moderated by Pamela Busiek, President and CEO of ICMAD, the “Color Your World: Your Brand in Color” session will be held at Cosmoprof North America on Sunday, July 22, 2012 from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
