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 233 166 73 shade matches the following richer shades: RGB 232 165 73 and RGB 249 168 56

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 233 166 73 shade: RGB 232 165 73, RGB 216 163 89, RGB 199 160 106, RGB 183 157 122 and RGB 166 155 139

The following analogous shades match the RGB 233 166 73 shade: RGB 232 78 73, RGB 232 121 73, RGB 232 163 73, RGB 232 206 73 and RGB 216 232 73

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 233 166 73 shade: RGB 198 125 24, RGB 228 147 36, RGB 232 165 73, RGB 237 183 110 and RGB 241 201 146

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 233 166 73 shade: RGB 233 166 73, RGB 73 232 163 and RGB 163 73 232

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 233 166 73 shade: RGB 233 166 73, RGB 110 232 73, RGB 73 142 232 and RGB 195 73 232

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 233 166 73 shade: RGB 233 166 73, RGB 73 232 84, RGB 73 142 232 and RGB 232 73 221
