Drawing colorful diagrams on Creately

The question of how we can help our users draw beautiful diagrams often comes up here at Creately. During a usability discussion, when the issue of our color palette came up, we realized that while the palette does have a whole bunch of colors, most of them don’t look good when applied on your designs.

To my surprise, our enthusiastic team come up with a cool color palette in a day to enhance the whole experience on Creately! The new color palette has a lesser number of colors yet makes your diagrams and designs look much nicer. Thanks to the subtle color tones.

Each row of the color palette (expect for first two ) have the same colors with different saturation levels. I personally love the 3rd and 4th which have light elegant colors. A trick you can use when applying colors is to choose colors from the same row on the pallet which will make your diagram look lovely.

So I put it to test on my clown drawing . Have a look…

Stay tuned for some cool styling features in the upcoming releases, which will help improve the look of your entire diagram with just a few clicks.
