What is your favourite colour?
After spending so much time around colours, choosing colour palettes for new projects, looking at colourful art, crafts, food photography, fashion etc. I can’t answer this question anymore. Can you? Do you feel the more time you spend playing with colours, the more colours you like? But what about the colours you don’t like?
What is your least favourite colour?
Did you ever have to do a project for a client, a custom order, or a gift for a friend with the colours they love, and you hate? Working with colours you don’t like can have a pretty negative impact on the entire project and your creativity. So I asked myself how to change that? How not to limit my choices? How to free myself from this negative approach to some colours? And how to enjoy working with any colour?
This exercise will not only give you creative freedom but will also teach how to be more understanding and less judgmental toward people choices of colours in clothing or home decor.
I'm not saying to accept, and like everything. After this exercise, you will go back to your favourite colours for your projects. Still, maybe next time when you will have to work with the not so cool colours, you will welcome the challenge with a smile and little less designer's ego, and approach your work with more enthusiasm.
I hope you had fun during this little exercise!
Have a great & creative day!
