OUGD404: Study Task 02 - How Do You Read? - Colour Relativity

"There are no ugly colours; there are only ugly colours in combination."

In this task we were told to write down our least favourite colour. I chose the colour orange because it makes me nauseous. It has connotations of sick and the particular shade of orange which is usually used is a muted burnt orange.



I thought that this shade of orange Pantone 717 UP would work in conjunction as an autumnal colour. It has reminded me of pumpkins and autumn leaves so I matched it with a red toned brown shade Pantone 7587. I think they would compliment each other because they are both ugly colours; as the quote would suggest they are "ugly colours in combination."
