Colour

After choosing a font, I began looking into the various colours I could use within my artefact. As the chameleon stands clear on my personal attributes mood board,I want some form of material to combine with coloured card that changes in different lighting; for example Holographic materials or fabric that changes colour with heat. 

In order to find the correct colour that would take centre focus in my artefact, I began looking into colour trends for this year as well as the physiological effects different colours can have. This years Pantone colour is ultra-violet; an “imaginative” and “artistic” (Pantone, 2018) shade that is key for 2018. From this I began to look into what the colour purple can convey on different websites and decided this would be the perfect colour to pair with a colour changing material for my artefact.

Key Takeaway: ‘high level of thought’ ‘communicates the finest possible quality’ (colouraffects,2018) ‘power’ ‘Ambition’ ‘wisdom’ ‘Independence’ (colourpsychology, 2018)
