Colors on the opposite side of the color wheel. Using them in conjunction with one another gives high contrast
Three tones, shades, or tints of the same color to provide subtle variation but provides consistency.
Three colors side by side on the color wheel. It is best to choose one to be the dominant color and the other 2 to be the accent colors.
Three evenly spaced colors on the color wheel. Provides contrast, less so than the Complementary color scheme but it makes the color scheme more versatile.
Like Triadic, but this time it is 4 evenly spaced colors instead of 3. Best to make one dominant color and use the others for accent, as with analogous, because to many colors can be difficult to manage.
Traditionally your Primary colors are red, yellow, and blue, as the can’t be made from other colors, but for the RGB wheel it is red, green, and blue because those are the colors that when added together create pure white light. Secondary colors refer to the colors you get when you mix two primary colors in equal amounts (e.x. in the traditional red and blue making purple.). Tertiary colors are colors that are the result of mixing a primary with a secondary.
Warm colors are reds to yellows, while cool colors are your blues to purples.
Shade is created by adding black to the base color. Tint is done by adding white to the base color. Tones are adding both black and white to the base color
Hue is the color itself. Saturation is the intensity of the color Luminance is the amount of brightness of the color
My favorite color is (HEX: #0088CE). It is the official color of the Carolina Panthers. The complementary color is #CE4600. A couple of monochromatic colors would be #02A9FF and #004166. Analogous would be #0021CE and #00CEAD. Triadic colors would be #CE0088 and #88CE00.
