Analogous Color Scheme

Analogous color schemes use colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. They usually match well and create serene and comfortable designs. Analogous color schemes are often found in nature and are harmonious and pleasing to the eye. Make sure you have enough contrast when choosing an analogous color scheme. Choose one color to dominate, a second to support. The third color is used (along with black, white or gray) as an accent.

Need for Nature (Biophilia):

Can be fulfilled both by incorporating living things (trees, plants, animals) or through elements that suggest nature (natural wood finishes, artwork with nature involved, natural patterns in textiles etc)

Coherent description, explanation, and representation of observed or experienced phenomena. Creates a framework to help with the design Theory helps us predict the future

ACT Standards-Wyzenbeek Rating:

Commercial and Heavy Duty Ratings - Wyzenbeek Rating: number of rubs and abrasion a fabric can withstand - Commercial: 15,000 rubs - Heavy Duty: 30,000 rubs

Complementary Color Scheme

Complementary: Colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel are considered to be complementary colors (example: red and green). The high contrast of complementary colors creates a vibrant look especially when used at full saturation. This color scheme must be managed well so it is not jarring. Complementary colors are tricky to use in large doses, but work well when you want something to stand out. Complementary colors are really bad for text.

How often is the International Residential Code (IRC) published?

Every three years

ACT Standards: Flame

Flammability

Environmental Preference:

Generally prefer environments that make sense, offer challenge or novelty, and allow for choice.

Advancing and Receding Colors:

Generally, warm colors tend to advance, cool colors recede. Remember that warm colors can also be made to be cool, and vice versa. Usually paired with the intensity of a color. Whites also tend to recede, making a room seem larger

Rayon and acetate (Man-made) are also a classification of cellulosic fibers. Protein: Natural fibers or fabrics whose source is animal based: wool, silk, textile leather.

Monochromatic Color Scheme

Monochromatic color schemes are based on one color. To have a successful monochromatic design, you want to utilize light, medium, and dark values, and varieties of the color in intensities. Having some white and or small amounts of black or even the complement hue, can be added to a monochromatic design to add balance and relieve the design from being overwhelming.

Achromatic Color Scheme

Not in the book, but it basically just includes many shades of gray/black/neutrals

Split Complementary Color Scheme

Split Complementary: The split-complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, it uses the two colors adjacent to its complement. This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme, but has less tension. The split-complementary color scheme is often a good choice for beginners, because it is difficult to mess up

What is an undertone?

The addition of a small amount of one hue to another, rendering the latter slightly warm or cool. Undertones can be perceived by careful examination

Attention Restoration:

Simultaneous Contrast

The juxtaposition or near placement of opposing, often intense colors that contrast with each other, possibly causing a vibrating afterimage where they border.

What is the metameric effect?

The perceived matching of two colors that do not actually match according to the spectrum. (colors looking different in different light etc). Metamerism or the metameric effect is the apparent change of colors under different lighting due to the warmth or coolness of the spectral energy distribution of the light. Colors are likely to look different in different spaces.

Triad Color Scheme

Triad: equal distance on the color wheel A triadic color scheme uses colors that are evenly spaced around the color wheel. Triadic color harmonies tend to be quite vibrant, even if you use pale or unsaturated versions of your hues. To use a triadic harmony successfully, the colors should be carefully balanced - let one color dominate and use the two others for accent.

How do you neutralize a color?

Use its complementary color
