Brand Color Meanings

Picking colors for your brand can seem like

a simple task.

If you like the color purple, incorporate

purple into your brand’s color palette. If

your business partner likes the color yellow,

design a purple AND yellow logo for your

brand.

THINK AGAIN!

“Colour is a powerful tool that when used right, can paint vivid fantasies in the minds of many.”

Each brand should have a color palette with

one neutral color and two colors that pop.

Neutral colors include black, white, ivory,

silver, gray, brown, tan, gold, and beige

colors. Of those neutral colors, black, brown,

tan, gold and beige are warm colors. White, ivory, silver and gray are cooler colors. Pop colors

are the colors you will choose to represent your brand. The goal of pop colors is to grab attention

and play the role as your brand identity. Color perception is the key to encouraging consumer

responses.

To choose pop colors effectively, you should look into the true psychological meaning of color in

the branding and marketing context. According to a study titled,”Impact of color on marketing”,

color perception influences up to 90% of snap judgments depending on the product. Therefore,

you might want to choose wisely when picking a color palette for your brand based on the color

emotions below:

For example, a spa would want a trusting, calming brand color palette and a pop music label

might want something more exciting and bold.
