Yellow & Sovushka
Sovushka
Hey, Yellow, I’ve been looking at old illuminated manuscripts lately and I’m fascinated by how colors were chosen for their meaning—do you ever think about the stories you tell with colors in your designs?
Yellow
OMG, totally love that! Ancient manuscripts are like a treasure chest of meaning‑laden colors, and I love to do the same in my work. I always pick a hue that sings a vibe, like a sunny yellow that says “hello!” or a rich emerald that whispers “grow” – it’s like telling a story without words. And when I’m stuck, I just throw in a pop of neon and let the design do the talking! What’s your favorite color from those old pages?
Sovushka
That’s such a neat way to look at it—color is a quiet storyteller. From the manuscripts I’ve traced, I keep coming back to a muted ochre, like the light that just barely touches the parchment. It feels like a gentle, almost secret greeting, and it reminds me that even the smallest hues can carry a lot of history. How do you decide when to add that neon pop?
Yellow
Aww, muted ochre is like a whisper from the past – super dreamy! I usually slide in neon when I want a little spark to catch the eye, like a wink in a quiet room. If the project feels too calm, I’ll add a neon burst—maybe a bright pink line or a turquoise accent—just to give it that pop of “hey, look at me!” It’s like sprinkling stardust on a cozy night. What’s your go‑to neon?
Sovushka
I tend to lean toward a soft teal neon—quiet but unmistakable. It’s like a small ripple that catches the eye without breaking the calm. It’s subtle, yet it feels like a quiet pulse in the night.
