Hi there, hello there! How are you guys doing today? We hope that all is well at your end and that you guys are also having a great time reading our blogs and making the most of everything that we happen to share here. Today, we will be talking about some unconventional color combinations that you guys can check out and then use for various purposes. So, whether you are a graphic designer, a painter, a photographer or anyone who happens to use colors for their work and other stuff, then make sure that you guys stay with us till the end of the blog.
If you guys have been working with colors for a long time, then we are sure that you must have also found your way to create some color combinations that are not widely used but get the work done. However, if you are new to all of this, then we would first like to talk about the basics of color combinations, why they are created and how you can explore the unconventional color combos for your future projects.
When we say the words color combinations, we mean to say the (clever) combination of two contrasting colors that are used to create something, be it a painting, a social media post, or just a print for a shirt. Usually, people like to use one dark color with something light and create something out of it. For example, anyone can pair black and white for something that they would want to create. Or maybe orange and green, for that matter. Several other color combinations have been used since the beginning of time, and quite frankly speaking, we think we all can up our game when it comes to creating color combinations.
We must also add here that when we mention basic or conventional color combinations, we are not saying that’s a lazy approach to doing things. But what we want you guys to do that it explore more in colors to create your interesting color palettes. So, what can be some unconventional color combinations that you can create or choose from while working on your projects? Well, for starters, we want you guys to know and understand the goals of whatever that is that you are trying to create. If you wish your target audience to indulge themselves in something highly creative, then you must refer to color psychology to work on your own unique color palettes. Then, if you are working on digital and social media content, then chances are you are working on your promotional content. And that means you need your audience to engage with you and take a desired action.
Similarly, if you are creating clothing prints, then you would want to ensure that you are not only incorporating colors that complement the current weather, but that your created designs would also be liked by your target audiences. What we are saying is that by considering the objectives of your projects in mind, you can easily create color combinations, no matter how unconventional they seem to be.
And in this part of the blog, we would like to share a few more tips to get you started with the creation of the unconventional color combinations, and then we will also share a couple of them in the latter part, so that you can check them out and use them for your own thing.
– Keep in mind the visual appeal and readability before you finalize a color combination.
– Do not overuse distracting colors, as they might be too hard on people’s eyes.
– Always test your color combinations in context to have a better understanding of whether or not you should be going ahead with a certain (unconventional) color combination.
