Whatever the purpose of the site the colors contribution should always set the mood and personality. A professional appearance is essential to success, so here are some examples of excellent color designs to keep in mind the next time you create a website.

Three-Color Websites

The following examples are of three-color websites. The three colors can be any combination, primary, secondary, tertiary and they can be complementary or analogous. It’s important for the colors to work well with each other, but it’s also essential that they don’t overlap too much. If your colors are too similar, your site may not pop and users may go elsewhere for a more stimulating experience. If you like a three-color scheme, check out some of these next examples.

{1} In addition to an adorable icon that saunters as you scroll down the page, the Fat-Man Collective website clearly has its web design in order. The three-color scheme includes a neutral warm gray, a professional and powerful black, and a warm and invigorating yellow. These colors work together to suggest professionalism, creativity and intelligence. The yellow helps elevate the feeling to one of optimism.

{2} Blue evokes feelings of calm, stability and peace, and that’s what the French design website Pentagon wanted to express with its front page. Using multiple shades of blue and leaving the background white for clarity and cleanliness, the business has created a soothing yet respectable appearance that appeals to a wide variety of customers.

Five-Color Websites

Expanding on the three-color theme, five colors allow for a greater variety of accent tones and interest. With five colors, you can stimulate a full sensory experience based on the way a color makes a person feel. The extra shades refine the image to one that perfectly suits your web design. Check out the following examples for good uses of five-color themes, and check out some available themes to streamline your design process, rather than starting from scratch.

{1} The perfect case of a website utilizing three strong main colors and two accent colors can be seen in Mint. Using white for clarity, green for money and growth, and black for professionalism, the website also uses orange and red as accent tones that add optimism, cheer and energy to the site’s overall sensation.

{2} Some companies use all colors with equal weight, more or less. Your blog or business doesn’t have to use two or three dedicated accent shades; the colors can swap places depending on the page layout, and each color can take a turn as the main option, like in the example of Carbonite, which uses purple, green, blue, white and gray. The result is accessible, trustworthy and clean, exactly what you want from a file saving company.
