Trying to choose the perfect branding colour palette?<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

You\u2019re in the right place.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We all know the importance of colour for branding, but it can be an overwhelming choice.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Today we\u2019re going to show you a great (free) colour palette generator. We\u2019ll drop some tips to help you get the best branding colour combinations. We\u2019re going to talk about primary and secondary colour palettes and how many colours you need. Finally we\u2019ll find out what brand colours mean and get right into branding colour psychology.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Primary and secondary colour palettes.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Your primary palette is essentially those colours used in your logo. They\u2019re usually 1-4 colours and these have the strongest connection to your brand. Your secondary palette supports the primary palette. These should be more neutral and compliment your primary palette rather than competing with it. You don\u2019t want to outshine your logo.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

How many brand colours should i have?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Depending on the needs of your brand, this can range. Including your primary and secondary palette, I would say a minimum of 5 and no more than a dozen. If you have sub-brands you might use more, but the more colours you have, the more you dilute your brand recognition.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

What colours mean for branding.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t

Blue<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Statistically the most popular colour of the visible spectrum, blue is calming and peaceful.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Blue represents relaxation, communication, loyalty, business and security. Conjuring feelings of serenity, security and orderliness. This makes it a popular choice for corporate brands.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

But blue can also portray feelings of sadness, especially when it\u2019s not complimented with a warmer colour.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The colour blue causes our body temperature to drop, heart rate to decrease and produces calming chemicals.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Blue is used in offices as studies show that it boosts productivity. People are reported to be able to be physically stronger in blue rooms, so gyms often paint their walls blue.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Although good in offices and gyms blue is not recommended for bedrooms as it can interrupt our circadian rhythms. During the day we see the blue sky so we associate it with wakefulness. This has a negative effect on sleep patterns.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Although popular, blue is the least appetising of colours. Some dieticians recommend eating off a blue plate to decrease your appetite. This may be because blue rarely appears in foods and is often a sign of spoiled food or poison. If you\u2019re a restaurant or food brand, maybe choose another colour.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Green<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t

Green is most often associated with nature. It is the colour of growth and fertility, of health, renewal and healing. In the middle ages brides wore green to symbolise fertility.

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Inexperience is sometimes described with the word green. A horse that has just been broken to the saddle is referred to as green. The term greenhorn is used to describe an inexperienced person. This use of the word green may have come from green being the colour of immature or unripe fruit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It is the colour of blood making it a representative of death, although some cultures see it as representing life. From childbirth, rights of passage such as circumcision, hunting and eventually death, blood is present in all stages of life.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Studies show that being exposed to red actually raises our blood pressure and respiration rate. The same physical reactions we have when we are excited, angry or experiencing passionate love.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Red is used in restaurants to stimulate appetite. In decorating it is often used as an accent so that it doesn\u2019t dominate too heavily. Red clothing gives the wearer the appearance of being bigger.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Red relates to the base chakra. This chakra relates to physical identity, oriented to self-preservation. Located at the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Brown stimulates appetite. Its connection with feelings of warmth and health may be responsible for this. It gives you a sense of home and, by extension, wonderful home cooked meals. It may also be because brown is so closely tied to nature and the earth where all food comes from.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Thanksgiving in America is represented by brown along with orange. This holiday is to celebrate the harvest, so brown would be a natural choice.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In India, brown is the colour of mourning as it resembles dying leaves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It can also have a negative side. The term brown nose describes someone who attempts to ingratiate themselves with people of authority for their own gain.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It has also been said that people who choose brown as their favourite colour may have repressed personalities. But brown lovers are also said to be conventional, orderly and dependable.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Grey<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Cool, conservative and moody, although it is often over looked as a boring hue, grey is rich in meaning and visual impact.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Grey is a sophisticated colour, it represents maturity and age, sadness, intelligence, practicality and prestige.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Grey, being a tint of black, carries much of that colour\u2019s meaning. Although many of the negative connotations are left behind.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Charcoal suits are part of the corporate uniform. They denote sophistication without sexiness and intelligence without the dark mystery and fear that black can engender. Light grey is a favourite colour for men\u2019s suits on occasions such as weddings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Grey is said to be the most neutral of all the colours and this fact lends itself to the perception of grey being a boring colour.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Undyed wool garments are generally some shade of grey. In the Elizabethan era the poor and junior priests wore these garments as they were cheap to produce. This gave grey an image of staid conservativeness.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Grey is the Christian colour for Lent. A time of prayer, penitence and self-denial.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As the colour of storm clouds, ashes and cobwebs grey is often seen as a spooky, moody colour. Ghosts and dusty, haunted houses are often depicted in grey to capture that mood.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

On the other hand grey can be a very prestigious colour. Silver is used to denote expense. It also calls to minds kitchens and science laboratories.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

White<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

White is rich in religious and cultural meaning. Whilst some would argue that it is not a colour, it inspires us and affects us as other colours do.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

White means peace, cleanliness, freedom, purity and innocence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

White is a very interesting colour as different cultures view it in very different ways. Western cultures see white as peace and purity, but in the east it is the colour of death.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In most western cultures brides wear white to symbolise virginity and innocence. The white veil is also a symbol of this purity. In Japan brides also wear white but this is to symbolise the death of their old life and their old family and rebirth into their new one.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In many religions priests wear white. This is to represent that they are pure enough to enter the temple or church and carry out their religious duties. The Pope is always clad in white.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

White is synonymous with Heaven, as it is imagined to be in the clouds where everything is white. People are reported to see a white tunnel during near death experiences and angels are depicted with white wings and robes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Waving a white flag is a sign of peace, truce or surrender. A white dove is symbolic of peace in the Christian religion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In Eastern culture white is symbolic of death. It is the colour of mourning and worn at funerals.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

White is used in decorating to create a sense of space. Most hospitals, doctors surgeries and dentists clinics are painted white to create a feeling of cleanliness and hygiene.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Black<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Although, like white, is said not to be a colour, black makes us feel like no other hue on earth.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Black is power, elegance, formality, death, evil, and mystery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The colour of night, of vampires and witches, of the unknown and evil. Black can scare us with its mystery. It represents power, maybe this is why we fear and revere it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Black represents death and mourning in western culture. It is worn at funerals and in some cultures widows wear black for the rest of their lives. Conversely, ancient Egyptians saw black as the colour of life and rebirth.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In fashion black is seen as sophisticated, powerful and slimming. It is the colour of choice for formal wear; black tie and the little black dress. It is also timeless and considered sexy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In Eastern culture black is associated with wisdom and authority. In most martial arts the black belt symbolises the highest level of learning and skill.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Black usually has negative connotations and is associated with fear and the unknown. Think of black holes, the black market, black death and blacklists.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Black is seldom used in decorating, and when it is, it is only small details.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is because black is the colour we see when a surface absorbs all light and reflects nothing. Because of this it makes a space seem dark and much smaller than it really is.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
