ANALOGOUS
Analogous colors neighbor each other on the color wheel (i.e. red /
violet or yellow / lime green). Since the colors don’t have the contrast
and tension of the complementary colors, they create an overall
harmonious and soothing viewing experience.
Analogous colors are easy to take advantage of in landscapes and
exteriors as they are often found in nature. One color can be chosen to
dominate, a second to support, and a third (along with blacks, whites
and grey tones) to accent.
