Warmer colors are created when the hue is shifted towards red, orange and yellow. These colors convey warmth, energy and an inviting atmosphere.

The following warmer shades match the RGB 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 170, RGB 201 193 170, RGB 201 184 170, RGB 201 176 170 and RGB 201 170 170

They are stimulating and dynamic and are often used to attract attention or create a friendly and lively mood. An example of this transition is a shift from a cool blue through purple to red and orange.

Colder colors are created by shifting the hue towards green, blue and violet.

The following colder shades match the RGB 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 170, RGB 193 201 170, RGB 184 201 170, RGB 176 201 170 and RGB 170 201 172

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 201 201 169 shade matches the following richer shades: RGB 201 201 170, RGB 213 213 159, RGB 224 224 148, RGB 235 235 136 and RGB 246 246 125

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 170, RGB 190 190 181, RGB 179 179 192, RGB 168 168 203 and RGB 157 157 214

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 185 170, RGB 201 193 170, RGB 201 201 170, RGB 193 201 170 and RGB 185 201 170

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 170 170 119, RGB 186 186 144, RGB 201 201 170, RGB 217 217 195 and RGB 233 233 221

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 169, RGB 170 201 176 and RGB 189 170 201

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 169, RGB 170 201 201 and RGB 201 170 201

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 169, RGB 170 201 176, RGB 170 170 201 and RGB 201 170 195

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 201 201 169 shade: RGB 201 201 169, RGB 170 201 186, RGB 170 170 201 and RGB 201 170 186
