The Design Personality Test
Select a shape below that appeals to you the most and then scroll down to read about your personality.


A psychologist developed these shapes. They have been tested worldwide, over a period of several years. As we received feedback from our research, we carefully adjusted the color and/or form of each shape, then tested again, until we were left with a highly successful set of shapes. These represent the nine basic personality types.

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

3. 1, 5, 9 here
I fully agree with their descriptions of 1 and 9. :D

#5 is arguable, but somewhat accurate.

4. this test doesn't seem fair to the color blind
Overall, I don't like any of the color schemes. For the design I chose 1 and 9

5. Good point!

6. 3, 7, and 1 are how I'm feeling tonight
Edited on Fri Sep-28-07 08:27 PM by supernova
though I think 8 and 1 could trade places. edit: I'm almost always attracted to strong colors over pastels so that's why those choices stood out to me.


Cool test, and freaky version of Call Me! :crazy:

7. 6
Peaceful Discreet Non-Aggressive

You are easy-going yet discreet. You make friends effortlessly, yet enjoy your privacy and independence. You like to get away from it all and be alone from time to time to contemplate the meaning of life and enjoy yourself. You need space, so you escape to beautiful hideaways, but you are not a loner. You are at peace with yourself and the world, and you appreciate life and what this world has to offer.

9. That was my reaction too!
You think you are so different that nobody could possibly peg you and then...


Bam!

11. #2
Independent Unconventional Unfettered

You demand a free and unattached life for yourself that allows you to determine your own course. You have an artistic bent in your work or leisure activities. Your urge for freedom sometimes causes you to do exactly the opposite of what expected of you.

Your lifestyle is highly individualistic. You would never blindly imitate what is "in"; on the contrary, you seek to live according to your own ideas and convictions, even if this means swimming against the tide.

There's only one of those that I like at all, but I really really like it. The result hit the nail absolutely on the head.

18. Wow, 2 and 5. It nailed me.
Couldn't have possibly been any more accurate.

5.
Professional Pragmatic Self-assured

You take charge of your life, and place less faith in your luck and more in your own deeds. You solve problems in a practical, uncomplicated manner. You take a realistic view of the things in your daily life and tackle them without wavering. You are given a great deal of responsibility at work, because people know that you can be depended upon.

Your pronounced strength of will projects your self-assurance to others. You are never fully satisfied until you have accomplished your ideas.


It was like looking in the mirror. Wow.
