Getting the most out of color
|
Rarely does a designer have the luxury of full-color. You don’t
even need four colors to have great visual impact. In fact, the
case can be made that the fewer colors, the simpler your design
and the quicker your message comes across.
 Choose
two colors and overlap them to create a third. In this poster, there
are only two inks, red and green. The brown color is created when
the two overlap.
 Dozens
of smaller images are layered on top of each other, each layer overwritesw
the other with a different color. This effect is called creating
a palimpsest.
 A
classical look is created in this collage. There is a nice contrast
between the use of colr and black and white imagery.
