From the first picture in the gallery:<p>> Club 33 is the name of a number of private dining clubs located within Disney Parks. The first opened inside Disneyland in 1967, and was modeled after sponsor lounges at the 1964 New York World's Fair. At the time it opened, Club 33 was the only location within Disneyland that offered alcoholic beverages.<p>> The initial cost of membership at Disneyland and Walt Disney World was previously reported to be $35,000, followed by an annual due of $15,000–16,000.[8] In 2012, the reported cost of membership increased to $50,000 initiation fee and $15,000 annually for individuals, more for corporations.[9][10]<p>Interesting, I would never have guessed that Disneyland had a luxury club hidden inside.<p>I wonder what the members are like, and how they may have evolved over the years. "Ordinary" (if extremely wealthy) visitors, who are accustomed to fine dining and don't want to lower their standards even during a family trip? Or is it an entirely separate crowd, that travels to Disneyland specifically to have dinner and smoke Cubans there?
Maybe I have seen too many court dramas, but a gas station near me painted their bollards this color, and it made me wonder if it might open them up to liability.
I believe they're following color blocking patterns in nature? I wish there was some more explanation into the <i>why</i> this might work (though I suppose it's all conjecture)<p>The dark green lower to the ground is similar to plants in the foreground that are close to you, above your head the green is more de-saturated as greenery would be in the distance on the horizon, and of course even higher is mimicking the color of where the sky would be.<p>This is why military camouflage is effective as well, though it's slightly different – with the speckled pattern of more and less saturated colors... we get the illusion of varied depth as if you're looking through grass or leaves... which makes it harder to see a single solid object (which humans are good at)
I worked for Disney and never knew this. They certainly have a way of tucking away things. I wonder where some of these are in WDW here in Florida. Most of the examples in the article are elsewhere. I assume WDW just has so much land, it can get away with tucking away easier.
You'd think that in this day and age and with all the Disney fans out there that this article would have pictures that didn't look like scanned in film from the late 90s.
Why would disney want to divert attention away from trash cans?
Don't you want them to to visible for folks to be able to use?<p>I get the desire to divert attention away from infrastructure stuff, though.
<p><pre><code> Disney 'hides' unsightly objects in its parks using specially developed paint
</code></pre>
I mean... yeah. All paint is specially developed to be a specific color. That's kinda the whole point of paint!<p>I love me some applied psychology in design spaces, and I'm glad you posted this, but in general I'm dubious of how much this instance in particular is supported by Disney hysteria.
