Complements the design
What type of texture?
Pattern “Enlarged Texture”
Less likely perceived by touch

Color Combinations…Complementary
Opposites on color wheelEx: blue and yellow
Split ComplementaryTwo colors to either side
of complementary colorEx: violet and yellow
Color Combinations…Triad
Three equally spaced hues on the wheel
PolychromaticMany different hues
Color Combinations…
AchromaticNeutral colors
SizeMeasurement of
amount of space that something occupies
