Color wheel for choosing color combinations

If you have not graduated from an art school or design institute, if you do not have a clear color instinct given by nature, and if you doubt every time whether purple is combined with yellow, then the color circle will become your lifeline.

How it works? It's very simple - take a reproduction of the color wheel and every time you choose color combinations in a bow, check if you did everything right. To do this, you naturally need to know the basic rules for building color harmonies.

Color wheel and color combination
The following colors are combined with each other:

1. Two colors located in the color wheel opposite each other (for example, 1 and 49; 84 and 36, etc.).

2. Three colors located side by side (for example, 73, 81, 89; 12, 20, 28, etc.).

3. One color and all its shades that are in the same triangle with it (for example, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 1, 16; etc.).

4. Colors of the same brightness level, located at the same levels of adjacent triangles (for example, 4, 12, 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, 60, 68, 76, 84, 92; etc.).

5. Tetrad, Square (Tetrad) - a combination of four colors. It can be of two options. All four colors are equidistant from each other or two pairs of colors located opposite each other. Only when choosing four colors, it is worth considering that a combination of no more than 2-3 colors is best perceived by the human eye. More colors are not comfortable for the eye.

It is best to purchase a color wheel on cardboard or plastic and take it with you whenever you go shopping or choose what to wear and what accessories to choose.
