We all know that red and green are very earthy, and we also know that the Northeast Flower is the representative of red and green, but recently, the Northeast Flower has challenged the international fashion circle.
Do you know why?
I didn't expect to find the answer in a professional color matching book like "Color Design Quick Reference Manual".
When it comes to color matching, everyone's first reaction should be that it is beautiful if it is well matched, but beauty is not the only role of color matching. The so-called color matching is to find a balance in color contrast, so that the color can convey accurate imagery and beauty.
This is a quick reference manual for color matching, which can be said to be a search for conventional color matching methods, however, this is only the basic empirical tips and methods for following the principles of color matching.
Color science is actually psychological and emotional, if you want to be brilliant, you must break the routine, get rid of the shackles, and use color to express yourself.
Returning to the topic of the big flower in the Northeast, the reason why red and green are labeled as rustic is because red and green are one of the three primary colors, and the combination of their high-purity colors and the prominent personality styles of the two make the imagery cluttered, giving people a feeling of warmth, publicity, and conflict.
How do you usually get red and green?
There are three ways to do this:
One is to achieve the purpose of reducing color saturation by increasing or decreasing the brightness, and the purity is reduced, and the conflict is not so obvious.
The second is to change the area contrast of the two conflicting colors, so that the area of one is significantly less than the other, forming a primary and secondary relationship, so as to reduce the conflict.
The third is to increase the neutral colors of black and white gray, retain the vitality and power of the color, and play a role in coordination and stability.
Looking back at our Northeast flowers, I have to admire the aesthetics of our ancestors.
Although the large flower in the Northeast is red with green, however, red is dominant, obviously more than green, and it is suspected that the proportion of the two is similar to the ** ratio, at the same time, white and a small amount of yellow are also added, as a harmony, so it should be a classic case of red with green.
Now you know, the big flowers in the Northeast are red and green, but they are not earthy at all, and they are not ugly at all.
The book divides color matching into four parts: color system, imagery, nature, and popularity, and provides nearly 5,000 color schemes for two-color, three-color, four-color, and five-color matching, and professionally describes each color scheme, describing its beauty and imagery.
So, this is not only a quick reference book for color matching without error, but also a small manual for cultivating aesthetics.
