Product Information

Perhaps you appreciate the concept of the square color scheme but the thought of too much contrast frightens you. No worries. Muted tones can create a very nice look that doesn’t stun. At the same time, you don’t have to give up the variety the square palette brings to the table. Besides, the traditional color theory hinges on three main concepts: hue (when most people use the word “color,” they’re usually referring to “hue”), value (how light or dark the color is), and chroma (how bold or diffuse the tone is). One last thing to consider with the square color scheme is working with tertiary colors. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you have to start with either a primary or secondary color. You also don’t have to start with a pure hue.

Square colors are not the first choice for beginners, but it doesn’t mean they should be avoided. Just read through the article and you’ll exactly what to consider when creating your design. Our resource is a great way to introduce young children to early numeracy, and get a great base understanding of writing numbers. Triadic: Take three equally distant colors on the color wheel (i.e., 120° apart: e.g., red/blue/yellow). These colors may not be vibrant, but the scheme can be as it maintains harmony and high contrast. It’s easier to make visually appealing designs with this scheme than with a complementary scheme. The right contrast is vital to catching users’ attention in the first place. The vibrancy you choose for your design is likewise crucial to provoking desired emotional responses from users. How they react to color choices depends on factors such as gender, experience, age and culture. In all cases, you should design for accessibility—e.g., regarding red-green color blindness. You can fine-tune color choices through UX research to resonate best with specific users. Your users will encounter your design with their expectations of what a design in a certain industry should look like. That’s why you must also design to meet your market’s expectations geographically. For example, blue, an industry standard for banking in the West, has positive associations in other cultures.

Since the early days of art and design, the use of color has followed many rules and guidelines, which are collectively known as color theory. It’s easy to get a viewer’s attention, which is a given with this color combination. The goal is to produce an end result that’s both gripping and aesthetically pleasing. Our printable 0-100 Square Display Posters are the perfect addition to this resource, a great thing to display in the classroom so your students can look at it to help them throughout their classes. The reason for that is the color wheel has 360 degrees, and since a square color scheme consists of four colors evenly spaced out, we need to divide the wheel into four equal parts, so 90 degrees. Increase the hue value by 90 three times to find the other three colors

Color is clearly an important part of a design’s aesthetic appeal. Basing your color palette on one of the existing color schemes can make it easier to strike the right balance from the start.
