Class Ex.


I think that the target customer is young lady , and the new arrivals are mainly blue and blue-green color, therefore I use orange as the key color of this fashion boutique so as to create the complementray color effect and thus the product can be easily figure out and can beed seen by the customers.
Apart from the new arrivals, the other products are mainly in Pink color and red color, this is the another reason that I use orange as a key color of the fashion boutique , since this can create the analogous effect. Besides, I use a light yellow pegment to paint the wall , which can also create the analogous effect with orange .
Overall, these color can create a harmony and attractive color effect of this fashion boutique .
