Before we start on any project big or small, we dive into planning each of the 7 (yes seven!) design elements. Color is one of the design elements that set the stage for projects. Every color has its own story and mood on its own. Combining multiple colors together we are able to visually tell a more complex story and begin to bring projects to life!
The Project
A fellow milspouse and one of our custom designs are about to rebrand her Instagram to share her inspirational words. We created highlight covers and editable text templates for her to easily share her beautiful words. She has a bright and sunny personality and is inspired by the island of Hawaii. We used calming blues and teals as a base for the palette and built it out from there with navy. To provide a pop of excitement and fun we added in a bright pineapple gold!
