I am working on my latest products and the more I experiment with what will be the background for a new series of 2027 products, the more I don't know which would be best, so can you please help me choose? 🫰💗
Same flower house, same layout. We only took the color out.
1. Full color. The iridescent petals do the selling: lilac, pink, a little shimmer. The photo is the brand, and every accent on the page borrows from it.
2. Monochrome. No color at all. Shape, texture and typography have to carry everything, and the page suddenly reads like a gallery catalogue.
Color sells the flower. Monochrome sells the exhibition.
The problem with monochrome is that, throughout computer history, it has conditioned users to associate gray and monochrome with being disabled, dysfunctional, or something to ignore and avoid.
