Can someone explain what these are used for?
Are these the colors, in a particular scheme, that go well together, so can be used together in an app (web/mobile/etc.?)
Is there any implied order in these, such as which color should go where, or that is an exercise left to the designer?
Also, just curious if these can/are used when painting house/building?
- egonschiele 13y agoYou can use this for any project that requires color. This helps you pick colors that work well together for a specific purpose. For example, analogous / monochromatic colors work well together to set a mood, such as the overall theme of a website, or painting. Or you can use them to find colors for your house. Then you can find complementary colors that are good for accents. If you're building a website, use them for headers or captions. If you're painting a house, use them for colorful lamps or frames. Color theory is complex, and this app makes it easy to use without knowing all the intricacies.
- mmahemoff 13y agoThe color wheel is a standard way to explore colors that go well together. Before digital design, I think it was more commonly used in print than buildings, but I suppose it's possible. You could also try http://ColourLovers.com http://ColourLovers.com for specific patterns.
