I want a background, like my grandmother’s carpet, where to look?
The background of the presentation should not be colorful with many elements, from which the audience will begin to ripple in the eyes. The more concise, the easier the information is to read. Ruffles have a place on carpets, and in the presentation, unnecessary elements in the background only distract from the essence and look sad
And what about the acidic background? Fashionable!
The main condition is that in presentations, the background and text should be contrasting so that the information is easy to read and there is no need to strain your eyes. Black and white is a classic example. It is not for nothing that the pages in the books are made light and the text black.
If you are preparing a presentation, test beforehand how the presentation will look on the screen. Projectors often distort colors: turquoise can easily turn into swamp.
A lot also depends on the lighting. For dimmed performances, use a dark background. White will dazzle. For performances in a bright room, print and personal meetings – light.
Then how do you choose a background for contrast?
If you want something more interesting than white and black, there are ready-made backgrounds and palettes on the sites:
