Colour connotationsWhat do my colours represent?

Light blue represents calmness and relaxation. This is linked to my magazine as it is a colour which is eye-catching but isn’t in your face like red or yellow

Dark blue represents mystery and royalty. Also upper class and the rich are represented through dark blue. It will bring sophistication to my magazine.

The black and white I will use in my magazine will only be used for text and titles. This is because it will help my writing stand out more and is also easier to read than red or yellow.

I don’t want the reader to have to concentrate really hard on reading it. I want their reading experience to be relaxed and calm
