Create the Brand Colour Palette
Time limit: 1 hour
Remember to use your visual timer! We recommend the inventor’s iOS and Android apps — just search for “Time Timer” in the app store.
Explanation
In this assignment, you’ll use your learning about colour theory from Part 4 to create three colour palette options for the brand.
Instructions
Create the first colour palette
Set your timer: 25 minutes
Keeping in mind your brand keywords and knowledge of colour psychology, choose your first brand colour palette.
Remember to start with just one base hue — this will be your main brand colour, and provide a starting point for the other colours you choose.
We recommend that you open up the reading from Part 4 about how to choose a colour palette, and work through the five steps outlined there.
Create the second colour palette
Set your timer: 25 minutes
Repeat the process to create a second colour palette.
Create the third colour palette
Set your timer: 25 minutes
Repeat the process one last time to create your third colour palette option.
