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 RGB 172 63 61 shade matches the following richer shades: RGB 174 63 61, RGB 193 45 42, RGB 212 26 23 and RGB 231 8 4

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 RGB 172 63 61 shade: RGB 174 63 61, RGB 155 81 80, RGB 136 100 99, RGB 117 118 118 and RGB 98 136 137

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 172 63 61 shade: RGB 174 61 119, RGB 174 61 89, RGB 174 63 61, RGB 174 93 61 and RGB 174 123 61

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 172 63 61 shade: RGB 113 41 40, RGB 143 52 50, RGB 174 63 61, RGB 194 84 82 and RGB 205 114 112

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

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 RGB 172 63 61 shade: RGB 172 63 61, RGB 149 174 61 and RGB 61 104 174

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 172 63 61 shade: RGB 172 63 61, RGB 61 174 63 and RGB 63 61 174

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 172 63 61 shade: RGB 172 63 61, RGB 149 174 61, RGB 61 172 174 and RGB 85 61 174

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 172 63 61 shade: RGB 172 63 61, RGB 115 174 61, RGB 61 172 174 and RGB 119 61 174
