Colour Harmony

After looking around town and college for all of the different colours that are used, I gathered as many as I could and placed them onto a colour wheel in the place that they best fitted. It was difficult to find examples of magenta and cyan in real life as they are most commonly used in printing.

I looked at colour harmony to see which colours work well together in design and which colour schemes clash and should be avoided. Here is a document explaining how colour sequences work and should be used.

To test out how the different colour harmony sequences worked I designed a few simple posters as examples.



Complementary











Analogous
