colour Theory colour wheel

shared by Frank Curkovic on 19 Aug 09 - Snapshot

Frank Curkovic on 19 Aug 09

Color is such a vast and variable element that it can be difficult to cover it fully in any one post. It can also be a little overwhelming when trying to implement it into your designs. Below are some sample color palettes, taken from classic color theory based combinations.

The color wheel is one of the first places I turn for color inspiration and guidance when choosing a color scheme. Color charts and pre-made palettes are nice, but the color wheel is simple and easy to understand and use.

A Guide to the Golden Ratio (AKA Golden Section or Golden Mean) for Artists - 0 views

golden rectangle composition

shared by Frank Curkovic on 19 Aug 09 - Snapshot

Frank Curkovic on 19 Aug 09

There's a mathematical ratio commonly found in nature-the ratio of 1 to 1.618-that has many names. Most often we call it the Golden Section, Golden Ratio, or Golden Mean, but it's also occasionally referred to as the Golden Number, Divine Proportion, Golden Proportion, Fibonacci Number, and Phi.

You'll usually find the golden ratio depicted as a single large rectangle formed by a square and another rectangle. What's unique about this is that you can repeat the sequence infinitely and perfectly within each section.
