The easiest way to find a triadic scheme is to put an equilateral triangle on the wheel so that each corner touches one color. The three colors will be exactly 120° from each other.

Color is in the Beholders’ Eyes

Additive color is light created by mixing together light of two or more different colors. Red, green, and blue are the additive primary colors normally used in additive color systems such as projectors, televisions, and computer terminals. Bleicher (2011) stated that the color wheel can be categorized into three main types of colors based on the combination of base colors used to create the final color, as follows: The color wheel consists of three primary colors (red, yellow, blue), three secondary colors (colors created when primary colors are mixed: green, orange, purple) and six tertiary colors (colors made from primary and secondary colors, such as blue-green or red-violet). Pink evokes feelings of innocence and delicateness, gratitude, romance, softness, and appreciation.

Sir Isaac Newton established color theory when he invented the color wheel in 1666. Newton understood colors as human perceptions —not absolute qualities—of wavelengths of light. By systematically categorizing colors, he defined three groups: OLETH-30 • LAURIC ACID • HEXADIMETHRINE CHLORIDE • GLYCOL DISTEARATE • POLYQUATERNIUM-22 • ETHANOLAMINE • However, some colors can evoke contradictory feelings from certain nationalities (e.g., red: good fortune in China, mourning in South Africa, danger/sexiness in the USA). Overall, you should use usability testing to confirm your color choices. Learn More about Color TheoryThere are seven colors in the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
