The color wheel is a simple visual tool to help you assess the properties of each color and how each shade can best blend with a different color. Just go to the internet and search for 'color wheel' for an idea of this tool. It is a good guide to help you pick the best partner for different colors. On the color wheel are the various main color group, red, blue, yellow, green, and so on. Segments that sit side by side are harmonious colors, meaning they have common pigments, segment that sit opposite each other do not have common pigments. Each segment is divided into different shades, from lightest to darkest. Any two shades from different color segments that sit side by side will have the same intensity.
The purpose of the color wheel is to help you choose and blend colors. There are different ways to blend colors to achieve different effects, from subtle colors in the living room and daring contrast in all the bedrooms. Here are four different ways to blend the colors:
1. Monotone
This means just choosing one color from any of the segment in the color wheel for the entire room or house. You can also mix two different pale shades from the same segment to give a layered effect.
2. Harmonious
This means choosing colors from adjoining segments of the color wheel. This is a very safe bet because colors of the adjoining segments will have common pigments. So you can choose colors like yellow and orange which will be very comfortable for the eyes.
3. Contrasting
This means picking colors from segments that are opposite each other. So you can pick colors like red and green to give you a very strong and bold effect. Red and green is very good for the study room and children's room.
4. Nearly opposite
This means choosing the main color, then choosing another blending color from a segment to the right or left of the opposite color segment.
