Tips & Guide

Color Harmony Basics

Complementary colors (opposite on the color wheel) create high contrast and energy. Analogous colors (neighbors) feel calm and cohesive. Triadic colors (evenly spaced) balance vibrancy with harmony. Start with one base color and build your palette from there.

The 60-30-10 Rule

In design, use your primary color for 60% of the space, secondary for 30%, and accent for 10%. This ratio creates visual balance. Your palette's darkest color works well for text, the lightest for backgrounds, and the most vibrant for call-to-action buttons.
