color
high key; colors: white. High key coloring refers to a space that is devoid of darkness. It is light and airy, bringing a sense of unity without color or shadows. The room feels clean and simple. To me it feels very medical, and a bit of an eye strain. There is nothing to fixate on, as everything is one unit. This is subjective, especially with the rise in the trend of earth toned rooms. The room feels light and bright with no distractions.
triadic; colors used: red, blue, and yellow. Triadic coloring showcases colors that create a triangle on the color wheel. This harmonizes three distinct colors, bring connection and distinction to a space. This room is primarily yellow, however the blue kitchen decor and red chairs create a visual triangle with the eye. The room feels quite open, however the warm tone of the flooring with the mustard tone of the cabinets makes the center space feel washed out. The green backsplash is a wonderful contrast, bringing back an analogous scheme. The room feel harmonized and well thought out. The colors do not overpower one another, despite the yellow being the most prominent.
split complementary; colors used: pink, purple, and yellow. Split complementary refers to two colors that are next to each other and against another. This can be defined as a mixture of complementary and analogous. The pink and purple are colors that are next to one another in the color wheel, while yellow is a complete opposite color of purple. This dynamic makes the room feel contrasting. The yellow and purple tables are the focal point of the room, and the pink is a well pairing to the grey monotone couch. The room is simple due to the contrast of color with the earth tones of the wood, rug, and couch. Despite this, the room is still open and not too distracted.
complementary; Colors used: purple and orange. Complementary showcases colors that are on the opposite side of the color wheel. These colors usually contrast, but can complement each other when done right. This room feels bright and open. The colors do not clash too much, and the brightness of the windows and table bring an equilibrium to the space. The light purple lines on the wall are not too harsh, and the pillows bring harmony.
analogous; colors used: Green and blue. Analogous coloring showcases colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. They can be very close in secondary coloring, but they are usually right next to one another on the wheel with no other colors implemented. There is usually one dominant color that connects to the other. The color scheme makes the room feel cultivated. The lighting is warm toned, so the room feels smaller and a bit darker based on the types of blues used here. The colors all flow well together and hold space within the room without jumping out too much or becoming an eyesore.
monochromatic; colors used: different hues of green. Monochromatic coloring showcases one color on the color wheel with different variations of the same color. This is dependent on hues, tones, and scale of closeness to the colors next to it (ex:blue and yellow). The scheme makes the room feel uniformed and stable, there is little to mess up. The room is calming and straightforward, giving it a relaxing and simple connection.
low key; colors used: black, dark green, and dark red. Low key coloring refers to a space that is devoid of light and highlights. It over encompasses darkness and dimness as its focal point. The room to me feels small and melancholic. The colors work wonderfully together, but the lack of light may bring down the mood of the room. The room in a sense does feel cozy, but it can be suffocating after a while due to the lack of proper lighting.
