Here are a few things you need to know about the primary colors:
Red: Think of the excitement and urgency it brings. Ever noticed how many fast-food chains use red in their logos and interiors? It’s no coincidence – red can stimulate appetite and create a sense of urgency.
Blue: This color is often associated with trust, calmness, and reliability. No wonder it’s a favorite among financial institutions and tech companies.
Green: Symbolizing nature, health, and tranquility, green is a go-to for brands focused on sustainability and wellness.
