Logan's colours and what they represent:
Time for another sanders sides colour breakdown !! In this one, we'll be discussing Logan's colours (specifically, black and dark blue) and why those colours have been chosen to represent Logan and his overall character.
Dark blue - This colour is a vibrant but very somber colour. It invokes feelings of professionalism, intelligence, and elegance. It can also represent authority and maturity as it is heavily linked with job spaces and professional environments. It is a colour that reminds you to stay on task without being too plain, but it has a sense of creativity and wonder behind it. Overall, it remains a steady, calm colour. This is Logan's main colour and it is a perfect fit for him. He is someone who prioritizes practicality and efficiency over anything else. If there is something distancing Thomas from work, it's considered a distraction, but he isn't stoic all of the time. He has his interests and that's when we see a new kind of person (interests include crofters, chemistry, puzzles, etc) and it portrays how Logan remains professional but still has his own personal quirks.
Black - I would say that this colour is linked with Logan more than he likes to admit. Black can represent being emotionally unavailable or closed and can even represent anguish and negativity, but for Logan, it seems to have a more mysterious, mature approach. Black is also a very professional and stoic colour that demands seriousness and intellect. Black can also be a protective colour that invokes feelings of comfort and safety. Logan is a very mature side that doesn't tolerate silliness but is also caring of Thomas and looks out for him in a more factual and straightforward manner. He is the source of reality but also safety as he's there to reassure him that his fears and worries are far beyond his reach and are happening elsewhere. He can bring him back down to earth where everything is familiar and safe (ironic because Logan canonically loves space lol) but also on a personal level, he's terrified of being perceived as vulnerable and so he acts emotionally closed off to avoid being taken as anything but a serious teacher, and I think that this colour does an overall good job of portraying that comforting but protective and mysterious sanders side of him.
In conclusion, these two colours though are a very simple colour pallete for Logan, are perfect for him because they sum him up the way he should be, it's simple and to the point but there are some underlying factors there that explain more about him and his character beyond what meets the surface.
Details:
- There is a splash of white in his tie that I didn't include because I thought it wasn't prominent enough for me to bring up, but this could mean two things, his role as a "light side" as all of the light sides where white somewhere in their outfits, or it's the opposite of what black means for Logan (black absorbs light, white reflects light and that light could be Logan's want for a sense of belonging in the group and how he isn't as emotionless as he claims to be)
- Dark blue, as written in the article above, also carries a sense of peace and tranquility, as well as loyalty and trust. Thomas holds Logan to a high degree as he seems to have everything sorted out (which isn't entirely true but anyway) and that could be represented with the blue as Logan is there to remind Thomas that his fears are irrational and it's okay, thus Thomas having a sense of trust in Logan that feels different from the trust he has with the other factors of his personality.
- I find it really funny how, in Growing Up, Logan tells Thomas not to wear black as he is an adult and should dress like one. Yes, it's a dig on anxiety, but.. literally any supposed mature adult you see outside would most likely be wearing some form of black on their clothing, even Logan wears a full black shirt in that same episode ðŸ˜
- I feel like a lot of the descriptions mentioned of black can fit Virgil (or, more specifically, anxiety) much more as he has always been quite mysterious but has always prioritized protection.. that will have to be for a different post, though.
