Colours

Every company have their own set of colours that relate to its core brand. However the UI branding can be different to the marketing branding as there are other factors that need to be considered when designing for product.

This is to ensure products will adapt intelligently and flexibly to cater to people's preferences. Whilst also complying with AA standard contrast ratios. To do this well, choose a primary, secondary, and extended colours that support usability by ensuring sufficient colour contrast between elements so that people with low vision can see and use the interface.

Design is inclusive and we should always remember that.
