Challenge: Working with color

(whooshing) - [Instructor] Now that you've been introduced to the elements of design, it's time to put this new found knowledge to the test. This is a challenge about color. Let's say you have a new web project to develop a website for a sales and marketing firm in lower Manhattan. Their reach is global, so they need to appeal to everyone everywhere who might need their services. What color palette might you choose? Take a few minutes to develop a color palette containing five colors, consisting of a primary, a secondary, and an accent color, plus two additional colors made of tints, tones, or shades of the primary or secondary colors. When you're ready, watch the solution video and I'll show you one possible color palette that might work for this project.
