Dromana Hub Shopping Centre is sporting a new coat of paint. Gone are the sea blues and sand yellows. Now there are two ruby entrances and a few colour contrasts on other arches and segments of the building. But ruby is the dominant colour!

Happy loose spending

Hi Gemma,
It probably was smart to give this center a face lift and include Red. It just has a way of popping out at you. Have a wonderful Tuesday..
Dear Gemma,
Red sure is a tempting color.
I might like to take a peek in that store.
I'll have to come back to explore your blog properly. Intriguing introduction.
From Felisol
Oh, yes, that is a nice shade of red. Temptress it is!
Beautiful colors. I wish Spring were happening here. Just good ole Fall, while I like Fall it only means Winter is next--so I would like it to be Spring. MB
Well, red is such a happy colour. ;-) Did the ruby colour subtly convince you to purchase more? Were the mall employees nicer to the customers? Did you leave with the intention of returning?
Ha! I'm sure some marketing guru gave the mall owners many reasons why they should change the colour to ruby red.
Happy Ruby Tuesday!
Hi Gemma, I'd go into that center. I also like your Tasmania picture above, it has a red tree, it is about to be spring where you are.
..
You can't miss that when a sale happens lol! Happy Rubie Tuesday!
Hey Jemma you should come on back to Creative Photography contest. Changes have been made judges can,t vote on each others post and only post in a sharing capacity.
Have a good one! :D
Love the title "Ruby Temptress"... made me laugh. Interesting take on the theme there.
I also love those awesome clouds in the background. Great post!
I am here with Ruby Tuesday and Naked On a Horse.
This shopping center in red looks so tempting...you want to spend there...
Unlike most boring glass and steel stores you see everywhere!
Gemma, if wasn't for the words that stated it was a mall, I would have thought it was an aquarium! :P
Nice one for Ruby Tuesday :)
That's a pretty spiffy looking shopping center entrance. Happy Ruby Tuesday.
That's pretty mall. The building looks great and very inviting!
nice shopping center, red in color.. love to shopping..here's mine sweetnorms and travelnorms..
the last pic is very pretty..
lovely use of red
Nice red stores.
I'm sure someone somewhere did a study and found that red makes people spend more money. Still, it does look inviting, doesn't it?
Nice! Red is not my color, but it looks great in the photos!
I am always fascinated by your architecture down under, it has a style all it's own for sure...wonder what it's all about...

The clouds made it really stunning shots! Beautiful reds this week:)
the title made me smile too
and I love the light posts in the car park! - very quaint
Nice new paint job. I like the red. Looks like a nice little shopping center. Just the right size.
Wonderful Ruby Tuesday. That looks like a really sweet little shopping centre. I like how you captured a bleak & grey sky & then a beautiful bright blue sky. Love the blue sky with the red shops!
