Colour Palettes


Colour Palettes

The house style in the magazine that I am using conventions from is Q. I have found out that it uses the colours red and white mainly. I have used conventions of this by using a lighter red that is on there and also using white on some parts where text is located. This is so I am not directly copying of Q but using similar conventions. I have also used black text like Q magazine as this is one of the only colours which contrasts well against the background which I have used on my products.

Colour symbolism is when the colour means something to the person that sees it. This is similar to semiotics. So I the colour Is red for example it can mean danger or even love/passion. This could be why Q used this colour for their magazine. This was the reason why I used certain colours in my final designs.
