Midjourney is a great tool for marketers (I use it to create this newsletter), but getting the outputs on-brand can be difficult! Here's the solution I've found.

Midjourney does not read HEX codes, but it is able to understand colour if prompted correctly. With color-name, you can transform your HEX codes into a colour name that Midjourney can recognise.

For example, at Arcane, I converted our HEX colour codes to Dark Slate Blue, Maximum Blue Purple, Lavender (Web), Magnolia, Russian Violet, and Plump Purple. Here are a few of the results:

Prompt: The creation of Adam by Coles Phillips, only use the colours Dark Slate Blue, Maximum Blue Purple, Lavender (Web), Magnolia, Russian Violet, and Plump Purple, --ar 16:9

Prompt: an image of a man struggling to write, only use the colours Dark Slate Blue, Maximum Blue Purple, Lavender (Web), Magnolia, Russian Violet, and Plump Purple, --ar 16:9

Let me know if you have any questions or comments, and feel free to share this with your colleagues to spark a discussion in your marketing department.
