Color schemes (part 2)
In the last article we talked a little about some color schemes (if you didn’t read the first article click here) in this article we’ll finish the argument.
Color schemes (part 2)
Triadic
There are several triadic color schemes that have great contrast and the same tonal value.
To do it, we must select three colors and arrange them evenly across the color wheel in lines.
This technique, that is usable in a variety of design contexts, can produce a really harmonious color composition with these hues.
Here an example:
Tetradic
Select one dominant color from a group of four hues that includes two sets of complimentary pairs, such as orange, yellow, blue, and violet. This enables complex, fascinating designs. Watch the ratio of warm to chilly colors, though.
Here’s an example:
Square and Rectangle
If you are good at using the color wheel, these two techniques will be simpler to understand. We must create a square according to the Square scheme and choose the colors for the vertices. The rectangle design is the same, but with a rectangle rather.
In the next article we’ll talk about warm and cold color and a lot of other stuff like these. To stay tooned follow me on instagram and join the discord server. For more information about this topic you can check the other article or go on this webisites where I studied for the articles:
