Color is critical for good data visualization in evaluation. Here are a few tips on how Khulisa uses color in evaluation reports:
- Select your color schemes and stick to it consistently. For cool pre-made palettes go to: Color CC by Adobe ; design seeds
- Don’t use too many colors as it detracts from the key message: go media – Become a Master Designer: Rule Two: Limit Your Colors
- Match client logo colors with your report, so it resonates with the audience. Here is an example of how Khulisa applied this for one of our clients: FNB PEP End Term Evaluation Final Report
