Application in design

Sharing some of the attributes of yellow, gold is a very warm, cheerful and bright color, which can help you incorporate a friendly tone in your visual communication.

Because gold exudes wealth, it’s the perfect color to make your design appear more high-end. However, use it cautiously. Think of it as an accent color, in order to avoid cheapening your design.

A small splash of gold will be enough to enrich your designs with luxe aesthetics.
