color schemes

Monochromatic 
Are derived from a single base hue and extended using its shades, tones and tints. Tints are achieved by adding white and shades and tones are achieved by adding a darker color, gray or black.
This room gives a very uniformed comfortable feel.

Analogous 
The analogous color scheme uses colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. One color is used as a dominant color while others are used to enrich the scheme. This color scheme gives a very lively feel.

Split-complementary 
The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement. This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme, but has less tension. This room gives a romantic yet colorful feel.

Triadic 
uses three colors equally spaced around the color wheel. This scheme is popular among artists because it offers strong visual contrast while retaining balance, and color richness.
