Visual Language - Colour 1

We were asked to bring in 10 objects of a certain colour, I was given blue. We were then grouped together according to the colour we had, this meant our group then had 50 blue objects to work with. Organising the objects relating back to their shade of blue, we decided to order them dark blue to light:








darkest-------------------------------------lightest

We then looked at the colour library known worldwide, Pantone. It is used to distinguish the varieties of colours and how they would appear on different surfaces. It is basically used to help designers choose the right colour for a certain design and to check out they would print on different surfaces.
To develop our knowledge of pantone, we were asked to match 10 of our object's colour, to the correct colour looking at the large range of colours found in the Pantone booklets:





We then laid our objects out, with the correct Pantone number underneath them:
