Color Theory



Designers choose specific colors to use in their design, and we call that a color scheme. Color theory is having the knowledge to mix colors and put colors together in a way that is right for your design. You will spend this week exploring colors all around you!

Research color schemes (monochromatic colors, analogous colors, complementary colors, triadic colors, and split-complementary) and color theory. Create a new blog post that addresses these points:
  • define color scheme
  • define and show examples of each type of color scheme
    • monochromatic
    • analogous
    • complementary
    • triadic
    • split-complementary
  •  define and show examples of 3 primary, 3 secondary, and 6 tertiary colors
Curious how we'll be using color next week? Check out this blog post from Modern Mechanix to get a preview.
