When creating a brand, promotional material, or even the grid layout for social media posts, it can be hard to pull all of one’s ideas together to design something captivating. At Iconium, we work with a variety of clients from many different industries to help them stand out amongst the rest. Along the way, our design team has learned some essential tips that are key not only to successful marketing, but to showcasing the whole of your brand.
If possible, stick to one or two typefaces in a design. Using too many can be distracting and take away from an overall feeling of unity. Take the logo we designed for Bakke Graduate University for example:
Consult a colour wheel to find which colours complement one another best. Colour plays a key role when it comes to attracting an audience. Too many colours or mismatched colours can be distracting and even deter from calls to action.
Note: Colours straight across from one another are complementary. Read more about the Color Wheel here.
Give elements of a design space to breathe. Designing with too many can make your products feel cluttered and messy. Use photos, logos, and other brand elements with purpose.
