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.
Triadic Palette
Light Blue Grey triadic color palette has three colors each of which is separated by 120° in the RGB wheel. Thus, #CFC0C8 (Chinese Silver) and #C8CFC0 (Pastel Gray) along with #C0C8CF create a stunning and beautiful triadic palette with the maximum variation in hue and, therefore, offering the best possible contrast when taken together.
Tetradic Palette
The tetradic palette of Light Blue Grey has four colors - #CFC0C8 (Chinese Silver), #CFC7C0 (Pastel Gray) and #C0CFC7 (Jet Stream) in addition to the base color (#C0C8CF). 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.
Square Palette
Light Blue Grey square color palette has #CFC0CF (Lavender Gray), #CFC7C0 (Pastel Gray) and #C1CFC0 (Jet Stream). Quite like triadic, the hues in a square palette are at the maximum distance from each other, which is 90°.
