Propensity theory of color contrast and color

A variety of color combinations, due to the hue, lightness, purity of different differences, the overall impact is called the comprehensive comparison. This multi-attribute, multi-difference contrast effect, is clearly better than single contrast-rich, much more complex. In fact, individual color contrast of the color contrast is difficult to set up a side, therefore, in the creation and design practice are rarely used. Designer when making a comprehensive comparison of a variety of colors to emphasize the tendency to highlight the color, or hue based, purity-based, to position, emphasizing the contrast from the hue angle can be divided into superficial and deep shades such tendency. From the point of transparency can be divided into shallow, medium gray and other colors tendencies. From the emotional point of view can be divided into cold, warm, beautiful, simple, elegant, light and other colors tendencies.

    Tend to deal with the type and color

    In summary, the colors tend to be broadly grouped into the fresh colors, gray, light colors, dark colors, the colors and so on.

    1 fresh colors

    Comparison in determining the hue angle, distance, especially the poor (90 degrees) than the comparison must be with no color of black, white, gray and gold, silver and other shiny color matching, high purity, strong contrast to the hue interval between the play, the buffer, the role of regulation in order to achieve both bright and municipalities, both change and unity of positive results. Feel lively, beautiful, exciting, free, active, healthy and so on.

    2 gray

    Comparison in determining the hue angle, distance, after being transferred to different levels of each hue, ranging from the number of gray, so that large areas of color to the overall direction of development of low purity, in order to strengthen this tendency to gray, preferably with no gray color, especially with the role of the group. Feel elegant, generous, calm, simple, soft and so on.

    3, deep tone

    Comparison in determining the hue angle, distance, first consider some multi-use low brightness hue, such as blue, purple, blue, violet, red violet, etc., and then being transferred to the hue ranging from the number of black or deep white and in order to strengthen this dark tendency, the best in black with no color group with the feel of sophisticated, full, quaint, simple, tough, stable, masculine, etc.

    4, light colored

    Comparison in determining the hue angle, distance, without considering the first choice of those smarter than hue, such as yellow, orange, orange, yellow, etc., and then being transferred to the hue ranging from the number of white or light gray, while To strengthen this tendency pink tone, the best white with no color in the group with use.

    5, the tone

    Is the most common and most numerous of the number of color tend, in contrast to determine the hue angle, distance, after adding a certain number of colored phase are black, white, gray, so that large areas of the overall color rendering is not too light nor too deep, not too little not too gray in the middle of the state. Feel easy-going, simple, generous, stable.

    Optimization or changes in the overall tone, the most important is to establish the tone color of the area rule advantage. A multi-color combination works, a large area, multi-volume use of fresh color, heat transfer will become a fresh, large-scale, multi-volume use of gray, is bound to become a gray tone, other tones and so on. This advantage in the overall tone can produce significant changes in the sense of unity, however, if only the tone color and did not feel monotonous. If you set a small area of ​​contrasting decorative color, accent color, eye-catching color, because of its different color sense and the role of color quality, make the whole atmosphere of rich colors. Active. But the overall unity of contradictions and contrast, if the contrast, change too much or too large, easy to destroy a whole, loss of unity of effect and appear disorganized. Conversely, if the area is too small then easily surrounded by color assimilation, integration and lose the desired effect.
