• How suitable are the choices and deployment of these colors? If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
• Go through the set of ‘Influencing factors' from the latter section of the book's chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how you might tackle this design layer differently
• Also, considering the range of potential applications of color, what would you do differently or additionally?
