Eight flower arrangement color matching methods
1. Single color matching method : Only a single color is used in the work, with different shades and sensitivities of color scattered throughout.
Such as pink, red, crimson, dark red, purple red, etc., showing the harmonious beauty of light and dark levels, giving people a very soft feeling.




2. Analogous color matching : any primary color is matched with the adjacent color at 90° to the left and right, such as yellow, yellow-orange, orange, and red-orange. This is one of the most common and popular color combinations.




3. Complementary color matching : A combination of two colors at two opposite positions (180°) on the color wheel, such as yellow and purple, orange and blue. This combination will make people feel bright and lively. We need to cleverly maintain the balance of the two colors to achieve a three-dimensional effect!



4. Split complementary color matching : It can also be called second complementary color. Any color on the color wheel and any color combination on both sides of its relative complementary color, such as orange-purple, yellow-blue, etc. This matching method weakens the overly bright and strong complementary colors, giving the work a more layered feel.



5. Triadic color matching : three colors that are equidistant and 120° apart on the color wheel (i.e. an equilateral triangle), such as red, yellow, and blue or orange, green, and purple.


You can also use three colors in an isosceles triangle, such as yellow-green, red, and purple, and match the three colors in unequal amounts.


6. Tetrad color matching method : square or rectangular color combination on the color wheel. Squares such as yellow, red-orange, purple, blue-green. Rectangles such as yellow-green, yellow-orange, red-purple, blue-purple.




7. Combination of color and achromatic color : any combination of pure color, white and black. Such as red and white, green and black, red and black, green and white. It is a strong contrast and very pleasing visually.




8. Application of independent colors : Gold has a more luxurious effect and can make the overall look brighter. It can be used in harmony with any color or achromatic color.
