How many colors should I use in a design?

Most designers stick to 2–4 colors for a balanced look. Use one dominant color, one or two secondary tones and an optional accent for highlights.

Does color psychology differ culturally?

Yes, cultural background can affect how audiences interpret colors. For example, white symbolizes purity in Western countries but may be associated with mourning in others.

Can I use color psychology in text-heavy designs?
