Practical Development 2

 In this post, I am going to continue with the practical development process. 

In the above first sketch, I have used the monochromatic lilac color pallet. I wanted to try different color pallets in the exterior of the building to have an  idea about the exterior appearance. This color pallet contains pale lilac, light lilac, medium lilac, dark lilac and very dark lilac. This color pallet contains warm colors as well as cool colors. Therefore, this color pallet coveys the sense of calmness, youth, innocence and emotional healing.  In the second sketch, I used warm color pallet which contains the colors red, orange, pink and yellow. These colors convey the warmth, passion, action, energy and happiness (StudySmarter UK, 2019). Thus, These colors get the attention quickly from the people but if it contains only warm colors it is a little bit harsh for eyes and the mind. 

In the third sketch, I used cool color pallet which contains, blue green and purple. This color pallet convey the calmness, mystery and nature (StudySmarter UK, 2019). This color pallet also get the attention from the children and also it is good for their eyes and mind too. However, this color pallet may suitable as it will combine with  nature too. At last, I experimented on the color pallet which is rainbow color pallet. This color pallet contains violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. This color pallet contains both warm and cool colors which means it balances the warmth and cold with the combination. Therefore, this color pallet is more suitable for children's mind and their psychology .
