The Elements of Design Color Schemes: Part I

Color Schemes What is a Color Scheme? Color Scheme is a plan for organizing colors according to their relationship on the color wheel.

Monochromatic Monochromatic means 1 color Designs use only one hue and the tints and shades of that hue. This creates a strong unifying effect, but can be boring.

Monochromatic Colors:

Analogous Analogous means related. Designs use colors that sit side by side on the color wheel and have a common hue between them. Example: red- violet, violet, and blue-violet.

Analogous Colors

Complementary Complementary means opposites. This combination uses the strongest contrasting colors, opposites on the color wheel. The combinations are very contrasting and grab your attention.

Complementary Colors: red & green

Complementary Colors: yellow orange & blue purple

Color Triads Color Triads uses 3 colors. This design uses 3 spaced equally apart around the color wheel. A primary color triad would be with blue, red, and yellow.

red orange, blue purple & yellow green Color Triad: red orange, blue purple & yellow green

Split Complementary Split complementary means using a combination of hues. The combination of 1 hue with the 2 hues on each side of its complementary match.

Split Complementary: Purple Yellow-Orange Yellow-Green

Can you identify the following color schemes?

Yellow Orange, Orange, Red Orange: Analogous

Yellow Green, Red, Purple: Split-Complimentary
