![]() ![]() ![]() Although the monochromatic look is the easiest color scheme to understand, it’s perhaps the trickiest to pull off. These tone-on-tone combinations use several shades (adding black) and tints (adding white) of a single hue for a subtle palette. There are four common types of color schemes derived from the color wheel. You can rely on the color wheel’s segmentation to help you mix colors and create palettes with varying degrees of contrast. ![]() How to Use the Color Wheel to Build Color Schemes # With each blending (primary with primary, then primary with secondary), the resulting hues become less vivid. Tertiary colors are formed by mixing a primary color with a secondary color that’s next to it on the color wheel. These hues line up between the primaries on the color wheel because they are formed when equal parts of two primary colors are combined. Between the equidistant primary color spokes on the color wheel are secondary colors: orange, green, and violet. These colors are pure, which means you can’t create them from other colors, and all other colors are created from them. Primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. Refer to the color wheel chart above to determine between primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. ![]()
