Color Psychology

Red creates urgency and momentum; cooler supporting accents keep the system from feeling one-note.

Accessibility

General Color Tips

1

60-30-10 Rule

Use your primary color 60% of the time, secondary 30%, and accent 10% for visual balance.

2

WCAG AA Minimum

Ensure text has at least 4.5:1 contrast ratio against backgrounds. All schemes in this catalog meet WCAG AA.

3

Industry Context Matters

Match color psychology to audience expectations. Blue works for finance, green works for health, and purple works for technology.

4

Test on Projectors

Colors shift on projectors. Test dark backgrounds in the actual presentation environment before presenting.
