The impact of colors extends beyond personal preference it's also shaped by cultural contexts and demographic factors. What works for a younger, tech-savvy crowd might not resonate with a more mature, traditional audience. And the meaning of a color can vary greatly from one culture to another.

Different age groups often have varying reactions to colors. Younger demographics might gravitate towards brighter, more saturated colors, while older generations might prefer muted, sophisticated palettes. Understanding these nuances is crucial in crafting a card design that speaks directly to your intended audience.
