COLOUR APPLICATION.. APPLICATION When using the PERIOD colour palette there are a few things we must mention before using them regarding application, although all colours have been chosen because they work harmoniously together, there are times where the colours aren't optimised to their full potential, that is because there isnt enough contrast. To combat these problems of contrast try not to overlay dark blue on pink, pink on dark blue unless there is black separating the two colours, due to the conflicting colours creating a odd look to the eye. Lighter colours work best on dark colours same the other way around, however dark colours on dark colours and light colours on light colours struggle to compete as their isn't enough contrast, so to combat this, it is recommended to add a black outline to combat these problems.
