Color Theory

Design and Creative Software

Color theory is the body of practical guidance on color mixing and the visual effects of combining colors, covering concepts like the color wheel, complementary and analogous schemes, hue, saturation, and value. Artists, designers, and photographers use it to create harmonious or intentionally contrasting compositions in painting, graphic design, fashion, and branding. It provides a shared vocabulary and set of principles for making deliberate color choices rather than relying on intuition alone.
