color care. There are cultural differences in the way colors are
interpreted. For example, red is considered lucky in China,
while white is the color of death and mourning in India. There
is a good round up of the cultural meanings of different colors.
Finally, do not put too much focus on color choice.
Consider that one in 12 people suffer from color blindness.
Plus there is always the likelihood that any logo you produce
for a client will end up being reproduced in monochrome, or
even in different colors, as they see fit. So make sure your color
choice reinforces and enhances the design of your logo but
does not define it.

a surface or substance. Graphic artists can trick the eye
into seeing three –dimensional materials on a two-

when two or more related elements are displayed
differently , and the greater the difference, the
greater the contrast .

• Size Contrast
• Shape Contrast
• Positional Contrast
There is so much more to contrast than just “light
and dark.” It is one of the most important principles
in design and you can almost never have too much
it, provided that you use it properly.
It is about finding better and more efficient
ways of communicating the message behind the
design.
Exploring contrast in detail and using it to its full
potential is one of the best ways to do this.
