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.

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 227 212 161 shade: RGB 227 176 161, RGB 227 194 161, RGB 227 211 161, RGB 225 227 161 and RGB 207 227 161

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 227 212 161 shade: RGB 208 183 97, RGB 217 197 129, RGB 227 212 161, RGB 236 226 193 and RGB 246 241 224

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 227 212 161 shade: RGB 227 212 161, RGB 161 227 211 and RGB 211 161 227

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 227 212 161 shade: RGB 227 212 161, RGB 163 227 161, RGB 161 176 227 and RGB 225 161 227

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
