Unwrap the Solution on Contrasting Hues Color Schemes Coordination
Do NOT assume that contrasting hues color schemes will look discord. Nature provides us a perfect departure point for this beautiful color harmony to be created.
For example, yellow, purple-red and green create a harmonious design, regardless of whether this combination fits into a technical formula for color harmony.
Looking at our grosgrain ribbon chart, here are some examples how we can pair them up.
Simply match two contrast light colors can give a soothing effect as illustrated.
| Light Pink | Millennium Blue |
| Lavender | Celadon |
| Wheat | Old Rose |
But to get an even better harmony in contrasting hues color coordination is by coordinating light and dull or dark colors.
| Wisteria | Rose Pink |
| Misty Mauve | Lime |
| Oatmeal | Hot Pink |
Color coordination with contrasting dull and dark colors can be very yucky. But there are few combinations that are widely acceptable for fashion ribbon.
| Blueberry | Maroon |
| Purple | Forest Green |

Three colors coordination for contrasting hues involves three colors that are separated by three colors in between them.
The art of creating harmony with these colors is combining different shades involved rather than having all from the same shade or of different hues.
Look! we can achieve interesting harmony putting two light colors with one dull or dark color.
| Cream | Wisteria | Hot Pink |
| Lime | Purple | Oatmeal |
Two vivid hues with one dull or dark color.
| Turquiose | Maroon | Yellow Gold |
| Orange | Blueberry | Apple Green |
