The meaning behind the GGP logo
The three colors in the logo are green, yellow (dark yellow/gold) and blue. Color theory psychology is a science that explains how colors can evoke certain feelings, emotions, and associations in human beings. Think about the colors that are used at places you have walked past, eaten at, driven by or seen on a screen every day for years. What colors are in the logo for McDonald’s or a Shell gas station logo? What about the colors in the logo when you go to order a sandwich at Subway? Millions of dollars are spent in marketing to design logos for businesses and companies
Purpose Behind The Colors
Our logo is a reflection of who we are—a space built on connection, warmth, and community. Designed with our core values in mind, it represents togetherness, inclusivity, and the welcoming environment we strive to create at Grace Gathering Place. When you enter and leave Grace Gathering Place, we hope that you will experience a sense of all (and more) these feelings. We hope that you will connect with others and learn together.
The Logo’s Colors
The colors are also significant and personal because they are the colors of the Vincentian flag, the country where our parents, Grace and Grafton Forbes, were born. The blue, yellow and green in the flag stand for the sky and the sea, the warmth and the bright spirit of the people and the golden sands and the lush vegetation and the vitality of the people, respectively.
- Green is said to evoke the feeling of healing, renewal, and nature
- Yellow is said to evoke the feeling of joy, warmth, and optimism
- Blue is said to evoke the feeling of trust, tranquility, and safety
“In a real sense all life is interrelated. All men are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be, and you can never be what you ought to be until I am what I ought to be…This is the interrelated structure of reality.”
