​Choose a color scheme that is appealing but does not distract from the content of the poster.
Colors should be:
- Accessible: be aware of common color blindness combos.
- Subtle: the attention should stay on your content.
- Meaningful: should highlight, separate, or define information. All headings should be the same color, and potentially different than the color of the body text.
- Distinguishable: There should be a contrast between the colors and the text. For example, one light and one dark color provide greater contrast than two light colors.
