FAQ
Color harmony refers to combinations of colors that are visually pleasing. Common harmonies are based on the color wheel: complementary (opposite), analogous (adjacent), triadic (equally spaced), and split-complementary (one color + two adjacent to its complement).
A tint is a color mixed with white (lighter). A shade is a color mixed with black (darker). Both preserve the hue and saturation while changing the lightness.
Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the color wheel (hue difference of 180°). They create high contrast and vibrant pairings. For example, blue and orange, or red and green are complementary.
Analogous colors are adjacent on the color wheel (hue difference of ±30°). They create harmonious, low-contrast palettes that feel natural — like the colors of a sunset.
