Color Theory for Designers - Assignment Example

1. An understanding of color theory will prevent color disasters. For instance, painting a yellow magazine is not usually a hit. Many people are not a fan of yellow. Statistics indicate that yellow remains the least likely favorite color for most people(Chapman).

It is necessary for a producer to understand the different ways of producing color. This improves the quality of the publication. A designer will be able to develop the best color harmony. The magazine he designed will engage the viewer and creates an inner sense of understanding and balance in the visual experience. The designer will not be boring or chaotic. He will indicate a feeling of order in his work and deliver visual interest to the readers (Chapman).

3. Do people always not like the color because of its significance, or just out of personal choice? Even after researching more on colors, do people take color meanings a bit too literally?
