I have been thinking about possible colours that would work well with the concept of the font I am trying to portray. Reading back through the research I have done on specimen books it suggests that only one colour is often used within a specimen guide to highlight distinct areas within the layout so this is something which I want to consider to make my outcome as believable as possible and related to other printed specimens. To do so I have looked at colour meanings and decided to go with a blue or turquoise colour.
The meaning of the color turquoise is
open communication and clarity of thought.

This relates to my concept as the colour would help to suggest legibility a key part in any font design and the clarity of the message being shown. I also feel that it is quite a cold and mechanical colour that works well with my suggestion of digital origin.
