Color is very important in branding and marketing because it is where first impressions of customers are based. Also, color is the secret in producing a good identity for a company. Colors are more than just a visual aid because colors convey emotions, feelings and experiences.

Combining Colors
Not all colors will work together. For instance, using the primary color on black will appear difficult to view. Additionally using black on light gray doesn’t work effectively. In order to avoid too many variations there are only five ways combing the brand colors should be used.

Primary Type

Max Miedinger designed Neue Haas Grotesk during 1957-1958 at Haas’sche Schriftgiesserei, Switzerland under Eduard Hoffmann as part of their functionalist Swiss typography movement to combat growing interest for British and German grotteques favored by Swiss functionalists. Later it was revised and released for commercial release as Helvetica by Linotype AG.

Hierarchy
Differing levels of information should be separated by size and body weights. This helps distinguish and read information quickly and clearly. Larger sizes are used for headlines and smaller sizes are used for body copy and captions.
Tone
The tone refers to the way in which the color palette of the images should match the brand colors.
Pantone 123 #333123
Mood
Brand mood are images used to depict the ideal look and feel for the brand. This might be just trying to tap into a specific emotion or theme, later this can get refined into specifics such a colors, typography, types of model photography and textures.
Values Brand messaging refers to every communication which makes a buyer relate to the brand by influencing them, motivating them and propelling them to buy the product. It’s the message that tells why your brand matters, what is its value proposition, and how it is different from the competitors. The Brand message is the core message around which other marketing ideas are implemented.
