I personally like white a lot and enjoy it in my designs especially, when I want to create something that I would see as clean and clear. Now, I appreciate all sorts of colors and love experimenting with them, sometimes to the extreme, so I am not addicted to white.

Many people don’t like white, and especially afraid of “white space” be it on the web page, print or anywhere else for that matter. Justification that is given is that it’s emptiness. White means nothing, empty and boring. And that is mainly because it is such a natural color and we see it every time.

The point I want to make about using white is following. White is not a natural color. It is, perhaps, the least natural color after black. There is nothing pure white or black in nature (and if there is, those are very rare colors), only different shades of it. All I want to say is that white deserves to be treated like a good color just like any other colors, because it is far from being empty, if anything, black should be overrated.

I like white and I think it is great when you know how to use it properly, I sure do hope I will learn some day. I am sure others think alike.
