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 189 178 199 shade: RGB 148 130 164, RGB 168 154 181, RGB 189 178 199, RGB 209 202 216 and RGB 230 225 233
