choosing the right color
I bet you have run into this problem before – painting a room in your house, choosing a wedding color scheme, designing a logo – heck, even deciding what outfit to wear. Sometimes it’s an easy decision, and sometimes not so much.
As a graphic designer, I run into this dilemma all of the time. It is always best to think about the meaning of your project and what message you are trying to send. Below are some tools and tips to help!
Useful Tools For Choosing The Right Color:
Color Scheme Designer – A designer tool for creating color combinations that work together well. Really simple to use.
COLOURlovers – A creative community where people from around the world create and share colors, palettes and patterns, discuss the latest trends and explore colorful articles. All things color!
Color Blender – Generates a six color blend based on the color you choose. From there you can tweak each individual color. Quickly find a great color combo.
I love my job, but if I wasn’t a graphic designer I would want to be the person that got to choose the names of Crayola Crayons. How fun!
game day colors
As long as I can remember, I have been going to football games. In the south there are two things every fan knows how to do on game day: tailgate and dress for the occasion.
I was raised a NC State fan – so as long as I could remember, I was wearing red, cheering for the pack. But… then it was time for me to go to school and I chose, THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL… Can you tell I am a fan? Go Heels! A few years later my sister followed my dad’s foot steps and headed to Raleigh, so you can only imagine it was quite the house divided.
As college began, I found myself wearing more and more light blue and less red – but it is hard to turn your back on that team you were raised on. These days you can find me wearing a little bit of both!
GO HEELS
Go Pack
But the best day of the year is when UNC plays NC State… I LOVE it!! – and just to clear the air, you can see I do wear blue!
These colors are near and dear to my heart. They are the two colors I chose for my personal company’s brand… Blue and Red!!
