Something about autumn shivers inspires a little spookiness. In designs, I like to balance bright with dark and pops of color with murky tones. Halloween is the perfect time to bring out this visual tension.

Autumn Color Ideas

Spooky color ideas don’t always have a place in the advertising world. But, October lets us indulge a little the the campier hues.

When I create these color roundups, I use hex codes because I tend to work most in web design. If you’re designing in Canva or Illustrator, you can download my images. Then, just use the color picker tool to grab your favorite tones and add them to your palette.
