OUGD505 - Studio Brief 2 - City Patch Project - Colour Combinations

Colour Combinations considerations 

Background and Type Colour Combinations

When combining different colours within the colour scheme it was found that some combinations didn't work for various reasons.

- Dark grey on Light Grey stood out however made the design quite bland
- Light Grey on Dark Grey created quite a dark combination especially if used for a page background
- Using only the grey colours for a design means that there isn't a link back to the idea of green space 
- Dark Green Type on a Light Background complements each other well creating a vibrant design whilst also reflecting the idea of green spaces


Combining Background colour with imagery  





- Using both dark grey and dark green for background colours behind imagery creates quite dark compositions and clashes with colours within the imagery. 

- Using the lighter grey or green as a background colour allows the imagery to stand out better however the grey creates quite a dull looking design particularly when used for a whole background.
