A split-complementary color palette consists of the main color along with those on either side (30°) of the complementary color. Based on our research, usage of split-complementary palettes is on the rise online, especially in graphics and web sites designs. It may be because it is not as contrasting as the complementary color palette and, hence, results in a combination which is pleasant to the eyes.

Dark Indigo triadic color palette has three colors each of which is separated by 120° in the RGB wheel. Thus, #5D2A0D (Seal Brown) and #0D5D2A (Cal Poly Pomona Green) along with #2A0D5D create a stunning and beautiful triadic palette with the maximum variation in hue and, therefore, offering the best possible contrast when taken together.

A tetradic color palette is complex and, in most cases, should not be used off-the-shelf. We suggest tweaking the colors slightly to achieve desired results.

Note: For several colors purposes, a square palette may look much better than the tetrad color palette.
