Question 1

What is an analogous color palette?

Accepted Answer

Analogous colors are adjacent on the color wheel (within 30–60 degrees of each other). They create harmonious, cohesive designs — common in nature and soothing to the eye. Example: blue, blue-green, and green. They work well for backgrounds and subtle gradients but can lack contrast.

Question 2

What is a complementary color palette?

Accepted Answer

Complementary colors are opposite on the color wheel (180 degrees apart). They create maximum contrast and visual vibration. Example: blue and orange, red and green, yellow and purple. Use the main color for the dominant element and the complement as an accent — not in equal proportions.

Question 3

What is color harmony and why does it matter in design?

Accepted Answer

Color harmony is the pleasing arrangement of colors based on their relationships on the color wheel. Harmonious combinations feel intentional and professional; discordant combinations feel random or jarring. Common schemes: analogous, complementary, triadic, split-complementary, and tetradic.
