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.

An example is the change of a strong blue to a subdued grey-blue or almost neutral shade.

The analog color scheme uses colors that are directly adjacent to each other in the color wheel. They usually fit together well and result in a calm and comfortable design.

The following analogous shades match the RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 135 129 177, RGB 148 129 177, RGB 161 129 177, RGB 174 129 177 and RGB 177 129 168

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 RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 121 85 139, RGB 143 103 162, RGB 161 129 177, RGB 180 154 193 and RGB 199 180 209

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

The following split-complementary shades match the RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 161 128 177, RGB 177 129 135 and RGB 129 177 142

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 RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 161 128 177, RGB 177 161 129 and RGB 129 177 161

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 RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 161 128 177, RGB 177 129 135, RGB 145 177 129 and RGB 129 177 171

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 RGB 161 128 177 shade: RGB 161 128 177, RGB 177 137 129, RGB 145 177 129 and RGB 129 169 177
