Color Combinations

Ensure that there is always enough contrast among the colors.

Selection Guide

For colors, apart from visual contrast, it’s important to consider the context of their use. The following are not strict rules, but are recommendations that are always dependent on the intent of an application & what visual elements it needs to communicate its contents best.

The stronger colors of the palette, namely Bayan Blue, Bayan Red, Bayan Yellow, Blue Green, Violet, and Black, do better at drawing attention and making visuals feel heavier. Use them as the background colors for special & important slides, such as the title slides, summary slides, or even the opening slides of social media posts.

These colors also perform well as accents above plain or light colored backgrounds. Icons stand out more and emphasis to important sections becomes much clearer.

The lighter colors of the palette are Cream, White, and all the Light Tints. As light colors, visually they are much softer and easier on the eyes. Because of this, they can carry longer bodies of text better than the stronger colors can.

As seen here, the Bayan Blue text with its font size, the amount of text, and the yellow background feels like an eyesore to read through.
Bayan Yellow competes with visual real estate, when, in this situation, it is the paragraphs that need to stand out the most.
