Description

Colour is the game-changer that separates the also-ran from the best-of-breed. It is the wow factor. But relatively few product designers are completely comfortable with the practices necessary to take user interfaces to the next level. This book walks you through what you need to know when working with colour, in very easy step-by-step guides. Colour in User Interface Design uses practical examples to simply explain: Colour models, spaces and gamuts Mixing colours accurately using HSL, HSB and HCL Colour relationships and harmonies Creating consistent tints, tones and shades Matching colour luminance and brightness Understanding contrast and context Light and dark modes Colour psychology, meanings and associations How to sue colour to increase conversion rates Step-by-step how to create, test and present a high quality palette Ensuring accessibility compliance With this book, your understanding of how to work with colour will increase dramatically – and that will certainly be reflected in the user interfaces you design, whether you are working with native mobile apps, websites, or desktop software applications. Lavishly illustrated with hundreds of high quality images.
