Unless a Client has very strict
brand guidelines narrowing down a color scheme
for their presentation can be difficult. There
are a few color pickers out there but we really
like Color Schemer
Gallery. The website allows you to scan
hundreds of existing color
schemes for free. They also sell Color
Schemer Studio for Mac and PC that allow you build
your own color schemes using their color wheel,
color harmonies and even a new feature called
PhotoSchemer that
allows you to build unique color schemes based
on any picture or image.
We used their free Widget for Mac OSX to find a color scheme for our latest presentation. We sent several schemes for the Client to choose from and ultimately they selected tea towel. The great thing about the widget is that it provides dexahecimal values which is handy if you find your self doing work in Illustrator or Photoshop.
A snapshot of the widget in
action - you can see how the the color scheme
turned into a nicely designed presentation for
Pfizer.
