Information

close all

Complementary means first and foremost complementary. With color tones there is always a direct complementary color that is exactly opposite to the other.

With this color tone #DDA520 it is the complementary color #225ADF. Both colors form the strongest contrast to each other and are especially recommended for use in direct connection with each other.

If you display a text with its complementary color on a background with the displayed color, you will get a representation that is pleasant to the eyes and clearly too indistinguishable from each other. However, this is especially true for white, black and gray tones. With these, the contrasting colors are particularly natural, pleasant and common for our eyes.

Richer colors are created by increasing the saturation, which makes the colors appear more intense, brighter and stronger. A color with high saturation is more eye-catching and appears more vibrant and powerful. This effect can be used to emphasize important elements or to create a vibrant design.

The #DDA520 shade matches the following richer shades: #DFA620 and #F4AF0B

An example is the development from a pale pink to a strong and bright red.

Less saturated colors are created by reducing the saturation, which makes the colors more muted, subtle and pastel-like. As the saturation is reduced further, they become closer and closer to a shade of gray. These colors appear calmer and more elegant and are suitable for a restrained and harmonious design.

The following paler shades match the #DDA520 shade: #DFA620, #CA9E35, #B69649, #A18D5E and #8D8572

Analog color schemes are often found in nature. They are harmonious and pleasant to the eye. It is important that they have enough contrast. Choose one color to dominate and a second to support. The third color is used (together with black, white or grey) as an accent

The monochromatic color scheme uses colors that are on the same wavelength. They usually fit together very well and result in a pleasant and evenly colored design.

The following monochrome shades match the #DDA520 shade: #977116, #BB8C1B, #DFA620, #E4B544 and #E9C368

Monochromatic color schemes are often found in nature. They are harmonious and calm to the eye

The following split-complementary shades match the #DDA520 shade: #DDA520, #33DF20 and #5920DF

This color scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary color scheme, but is not as contrasting as the direct complementary color. The partial complementary color scheme is a good choice for designs. These colors usually complement each other very well.

A triadic color scheme uses colors evenly spaced around the color wheel. Triadic color harmonies are usually quite vivid, even if pale or unsaturated colors are used.

The following triaden shades match the #DDA520 shade: #DDA520, #20DFA6 and #A620DF

The colors should be well chosen to achieve triadic harmony. Let one color dominate and use the other two as accent colors.

The following squaren shades match the #DDA520 shade: #DDA520, #20DF46, #2059DF and #DF20B9
