Review Week 8

Why must designers pay close attention to how color is utilized within a composition?
Because the wrong use of color can break a design. If too intense of colors are used without any rest, the design will come off too strong and unappealing. Also if bad color combinations are used, the design will look unattractive, as well as give off the wrong feeling

Why is the color wheel an important tool for graphic designers?
It gives you all the basic colors you might need in a way that can be easily used to pick the right hue.
 
Find an example of neutral colors utilized within a design (hint: google poster design). Near the sample, discuss why you feel the designer included neutral colors within the composition.
This is the logo for google chrome.  The neuteral colors, between the blue yellow red and green are used to seperate the more intense colors, and give the eyes a rest.
 
Briefly describe how we "see" the color of an object?
Most light waves are absorbed into objects, however some are reflected. We are able to see those reflected lights.
