The partial complementary color scheme is a variation of the complementary color scheme. In addition to the base color, the two colors adjacent to the complement are used.
The following split-complementary shades match the HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50% shade: HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 55K 030% Black 30% and HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 18K 030% Black 30%
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 HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50% shade: HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 41K 030% Black 30% and HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 83K 040% Black 30%
The colors should be well chosen to achieve triadic harmony. Let one color dominate and use the other two as accent colors.
The rectangular or tetradish color scheme uses four colors arranged in two complementary pairs. This rich color scheme offers many variation possibilities.
The following tetraden shades match the HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50% shade: HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 55K 030% Black 30%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 37K 040% Black 30% and HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 83K 040% Black 30%
It works best if you let one of these colors dominate. You should also pay attention to the balance between warm and cold colors in the design
The square color scheme is similar to the rectangular color scheme, with all four colors evenly distributed around the color circle. The square color scheme works best when one color dominates.
The following squaren shades match the HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50% shade: HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 67K 020% Black 50%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 41K 030% Black 30%, HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 37K 040% Black 30% and HKS Rasterfaecher - HKS 78K 040% Black 30%
