(Un) Neutral Colours

My local park, Komazawa Koen has re-laid the cycle lanes using a blue that has a particularly significant meaing in Japan - blue tarp is widely used as shelter material for homeless people and can be found wrapped around wooden frames in most parks and recreational spaces in Tokyo.
