However, this is especially true for white, black and gray tones. With these, the contrasting colors are particularly natural, pleasant and common for our eyes.

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 3 221 241 shade matches the following richer shades: RGB 2 222 242

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 3 221 241 shade: RGB 2 222 242, RGB 22 205 222, RGB 42 189 202, RGB 61 172 182 and RGB 81 156 163

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 3 221 241 shade: RGB 2 242 134, RGB 2 242 198, RGB 2 222 242, RGB 2 158 242 and RGB 2 94 242

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 3 221 241 shade: RGB 1 147 160, RGB 2 184 201, RGB 2 222 242, RGB 33 234 252 and RGB 74 238 253

The following split-complementary shades match the RGB 3 221 241 shade: RGB 3 221 241, RGB 70 2 242 and RGB 242 166 2

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 3 221 241 shade: RGB 3 221 241, RGB 242 2 222 and RGB 222 242 2

The colors should be well chosen to achieve triadic harmony. Let one color dominate and use the other two as accent colors.
