5 Quick Design Tips to Create Great Rainbow-Colored Presentations in 2021

After you’ve chosen your favorite rainbow PowerPoint template, it’s time to start building a slide deck of your own. To be truly effective, embrace the latest styles and techniques to craft beautiful rainbow slides. 

Let’s look at five quick tips to help you get started:

1. Focus on Uncluttered Slides

Triana Rainbow PowerPoint templateTriana Rainbow PowerPoint templateTriana Rainbow PowerPoint template
This premium rainbow PowerPoint background combines an unforgettable color spectrum with minimalist styling.

Rainbow color is a key part of adding contrast. But if you overwhelm every slide with a flood of content, the effect is lost. It’s crucial to keep slides bold, bright, and focused on key ideas. 

Extra detail can always be moved to later slides. The trick is to keep things focused and flowing smoothly. It’s an easy stylistic flourish sure to impress any audience.

2. Use Rainbow Color as a Backdrop

Rainbow colors make a great backdrop, helping you offset text, photos, charts, and more. Thanks to PowerPoint’s robust editing features, adding and customizing backdrops is easy. Whether you’re using solid colors or colorful images, you can build backdrops in a flash.

Learn how here in our fully featured tutorial on PowerPoint background graphics:

3. Complement Content With Colors

This premium Envato Elements example illustrates the creative value of matching colors and images.

Suppose you’re sharing an infographic with your latest project results. Or imagine sharing a slide deck of your favorite vacation memories. 

The creative use of color is a prime way to complement your content. But chances are, you’ll want to use different templates for these two very different projects. As you build slides, focus on the composition of your content, and choose a color palette to match. 

4. Combine Color Schemes for Maximum Impact

Color trends change all the time, and it pays for any creative to stay connected with them. One color might fall flat. But powerful and stylish color combinations deliver the “wow” factor for a successful presentation.   

Whether they’re bold contrasts, smooth gradients, or somewhere in between, these combinations can help you now. Review the latest trends and learn to make your own here:

5. Illustrate Data With Colors
