Practical learning in color theory and typography for Ottawa's creative community
Move beyond picking colors by instinct. We explore how color models work, why certain combinations create harmony, and how cultural context shapes color perception. You'll develop a systematic approach to color selection that works across digital and print applications.
Choosing typefaces with confidence starts with understanding how they work. We break down typeface anatomy, explore pairing methodologies, and build frameworks for creating readable, intentional hierarchies. You'll learn why certain combinations strengthen a design and others feel off.
Bring color and type together in hands-on sessions where theory becomes practice. We work through real design challenges, examining how color choices and typography decisions interact to create cohesion or tension. Includes practical exercises and feedback on your own work.
Prefer to explore at your own pace? Our written guides cover the same core topics with clear explanations, visual examples, and practical checks you can work through independently. Each guide builds on foundational concepts and includes reference materials you'll keep using.
Whether you're looking for group workshops, self-directed learning, or something tailored to your team's needs, we're here to help. Get in touch to discuss what works best for you.
