Five Genius Color Schemes
What makes them genius? While carefully crafting each scheme, I focused on these core attributes:
Versatility: While each has a clear personality, the colors are approachable enough to work in lots of context!
Uniqueness: So many Mocha Mousse schemes connect the color to wood tones and coffee. Great, but, more please? I scoured my inspiration folders for images that used the color in novel ways. Not easy for me, but I think you’ll agree the end product is worth it!
Ease of Use: All of these colors are print friendly! No need to compromise if you are using them for a graphic design or hoping to print crisp swatches that your hardware store can turn into custom paint colors! (Remember that screen calibration can make your printed result appear different from the digital version.)
Harmony: I’ve applied years of color theory knowledge to pick shades that feel good together. Trust me, there’s a lot more to this than just grabbing random swatches from a photo! Like I said before, though, I hope you’ll agree the finished color schemes are worth the effort.
