How to find the perfect color
Many of us spend hours floundering around looking for just the right colors while designing a web site, presentation, or flier.
Their 25-page booklet [PDF] walks you through choosing the perfect color, beginning with pulling the natural color palette out of a digital photos. From there, you can extract the predominate colors and work your way through the warm and cool color schemes to play around and see what tones and hues best project the idea you want to portray. For instance, warm copper and gold tones evoke images of a crisp fall day, while icy blues are more wintery.
The booklet has loads of information on how to use colors to send subconscious messages to viewers. Certain color combinations suggest femininity, for instance, while others are all business.
Getting that just-right color is part art, part science. They’ll show you.
