It can often feel like we&#8217;ve exhausted all possibilities. But there are many ways to find colour palette inspiration. Here are five:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Look to nature<br><\/strong>This is by far my favourite place to look for colour palette inspiration. You simply can&#8217;t go wrong. It all works. Step outside the studio and take a look around. You will find endless colour combinations right before your eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flip through a magazine<br><\/strong>Sounds simple doesn&#8217;t it. Well it is. Pick up any magazine, especially a creative one, and thumb through the pages. Highlight the pages you like and get creating with your selected colour combos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sift through your wardrobe<br><\/strong>Textile and fashion designers have a great eye for colour. Sift through your wardrobe for colour, texture or graphic inspiration. You&#8217;ll be surprised what working colour combinations you&#8217;ll find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Take a drive through the streets<br><\/strong>This is another great way to find colour inspiration as it will open your mind to seeing things you may not normally notice. Whether it&#8217;s a roadside sign, the reflection of light on a window or the colour of a fence or house; colour inspiration is all around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit a homewares store<br><\/strong>Gorgeous colour combos are abundant in interior design. Take a look in your favourite homewares store. Check out the throws, cushions, bedroom furnishings, plates, towels and more. Pay attention to how the items are displayed in each section. Voila &#8211; the perfect colour palette is born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding colour palette inspiration is all about opening your eyes to the colour that surrounds you in every day life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember there are thousands of resources online too &#8211; just think Pinterest, Instagram, Stock Libraries and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\"><em> Top image: Saffu on Unsplash<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>For graphic design services visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativeboost.com.au\/\">www.creativeboost.com.au<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Choosing the perfect colour palette can be challenging at times.
