Frequently Asked Questions

What is a complementary color?

A complementary color is directly opposite on the color wheel (180° apart). These pairs create high contrast and visual vibrance when used together.

What are split-complementary colors?

Instead of the direct opposite, split-complementary uses the two colors adjacent to the complement, creating a softer contrast.

What are analogous colors?

Analogous colors are adjacent on the color wheel (within 30°). They create harmonious, cohesive color schemes.
