Make a Logo Red White Blue Colors

Our brains are hardwired to react to and remember color combinations. If you close your eyes right now and think of three famous brands, chances are you'll be able to conjure up the company's logo colors right away. Starbucks: green and white. Ikea: blue and yellow. FedEx: purple and orange.

Color is a powerful tool to engage people's emotions and pique their interest. It's especially important when developing a brand identity, and brand assets like a logo.

Picking the right color combinations can be tricky business. Lucky for you, there's actually a science to it called color theory that'll make it easier for you to select your brand colors.

Types of color combinations

Working with the color theory wheel is the best way to start when choosing your logo colors. The color wheel contains warm colors (red, yellow, orange) on the left side and cool colors (blue, green, and purple) on the right. Understanding the relationship between colors and how they interact on the color wheel is the key to successful design.

Complementary color combinations are colors that sit on opposite sides of the color wheel. These two colors create contrast and make for high-impact, legible brand designs.

Analogous color combinations are two to five colors that sit beside each other on the color wheel. These colors generally create a sense of harmony and balance. Analogous color schemes are often found in nature, where one color dominates and the others support its depth.

Triadic color combinations are rich and vibrant color combinations. Use the triadic color theory if you're looking for a dynamic three-color palette. Simply draw a triangle on the color wheel and you'll hit three colors that are evenly spaced out.

Tip: In logo design, you'll want to select one color to dominate and the other two as accents.

We've chosen some of the best color combinations (complete with a bit of color psychology) to inspire your next logo design. Let's dive in!

Choosing the right logo color combination

The psychology behind color plays a huge role in our lives. Every day, we subconsciously make associations in our brains that trigger positive or negative emotions.

Remember this when creating your logo — the color combination you choose tells a story, and you want that story to reflect your brand while resonating with your target audience.
