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 174 152 97 shade matches the following richer shades: RGB 173 151 96, RGB 192 159 77, RGB 212 168 58, RGB 231 176 38 and RGB 251 184 19

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 173 151 96, RGB 154 143 116, RGB 134 134 135, RGB 115 126 154 and RGB 95 118 174

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 173 109 96, RGB 173 130 96, RGB 173 150 96, RGB 173 170 96 and RGB 155 173 96

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 123 106 63, RGB 151 130 77, RGB 173 151 96, RGB 187 169 124 and RGB 201 187 151

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

The following split-complementary shades match the RGB 174 152 97 shade: RGB 174 152 97, RGB 104 173 96 and RGB 119 96 173

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 174 152 97, RGB 96 173 150 and RGB 150 96 173

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 174 152 97, RGB 104 173 96, RGB 96 119 173 and RGB 165 96 173

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 174 152 97 shade: RGB 174 152 97, RGB 96 173 112, RGB 96 119 173 and RGB 173 96 158
