"Where to get inspiration?" - you ask. I don’t even know how to answer, such an inexplicable thing is inspiration. For some, this is a permanent process of waiting, for others, the phenomenon is “in passing”. But you can not wait for it, but be inspired every day on your own. Color harmonies are one of its inexhaustible sources.
Pay attention to color palettes, otherwise they are called colorboard . These hint schemes help creative people and amateurs to choose interesting and harmonious color combinations for the interior, decor, and accessories.
Look, around us, in addition to patterns, there are also color spots. Of course, it is easy to find them in professional interior design and the eye rejoices at how harmoniously they fit there, but it is more interesting to look for them on the street, where nature itself adds color to urbanism, bringing its own unique touches to the creation of man.
Let's look at the next photo. Samarkand. Turquoise city. Even the sky is turquoise.
A turquoise palette in which blue-green hues play a leading role. The whole gamut of turquoise can be called both cyan (cyan) and teal (teal). Teal is the color of the sea wave, sea blue or sea green, close to turquoise. The Teal palette itself is from light to dark shades of aqua, or cyan.
Brown-brick tiger-lions above the portal of the Sherdor Medresse create an interesting accent in this color scheme. These tigers are spots of the opposite color, so the picture creates a harmonious feeling. Doubts in this range are caused by the dark green of the trees. In the drawing, I hardly need to use such a shade in this scale, because. it is not harmonious with light cyan colors. Despite the fact that the cyan color in this range takes up more space, dark greens make the color harmony heavier. Agree, the trees under the snow cover would refresh the picture?
I would like more emphasis on the combination of cooling white, fresh sea blue with warm brick chocolate. Therefore, such harmony seems to me more interesting and optimistic.
Now let's clarify the concepts a bit.
What is the difference between shades of aquamarine and turquoise color palette?
Color teal (teal), got its name from the duck. The bird of the duck family Teal-whistle in translation is teal. Its plumage has a rich blue-green color. Although the duck also has emerald green feathers. Accordingly, all shades of this blue-green - unsaturated, "dusty" or "whitened", can be called teal - teal.
Cyan color - cyan. It is also a blue-green color, in which blue and green are equally divided. In the CMYK system, this is one of the 4 primary colors. Cyan and translates as blue-green or aquamarine, or as neon blue. Since childhood, the color of the sea wave seemed to me closer to the color of the green paint, which was smeared with abrasions on the knees, but not blue neon. But I also remember this green-blue neon from childhood: in fountains they sometimes tint the water like this - this is cyan.
In general, it is believed that cyan are shades of the color of the sea wave. To better understand the difference in nuances, take a look at these palettes.
There are other color names that are also a combination of blue and green, this is the turquoise palette (turquoise). This color is closer and more understandable to many, since jewelry with turquoise is still more common in our lives than teal. On the other hand, the stone itself has varieties, so here we find ourselves in a rather large range of blue-green shades. There is no mistake in the title of the article, this harmony can be called both turquoise and cyan. Cyan shades are often translated as turquoise. See how interestingly the veins on the stone and the spots on the wall echo.
So, dark cyan color corresponds to teal (teal) and deep turquoise (turquoise).
I hope you caught such nuances of these colors, which distinguish one from the other.
Harmonious combinations of turquoise and brown shades.
On the Internet, I found several interesting similar palettes. Such color boards (colorboard) help to orient, visually represent combinations of harmonious colors.
So, our cyan and teal shades go very well with the brown range of colors from beige to dark chocolate. These are wonderful combinations for clothes, interiors, make-up, and, of course, beautiful patterns and ornaments.
If you like to color, then in the section you can download coloring pages for meditation, and, focusing on these beautiful palettes, color them.
The difference in colors can be in the slightest nuances, and the difference in concepts boils down to the fact that there are no rigid frames for the name of the color, but there are figurative markers. For memorizing the numerical formulas of color is pointless and inefficient.
Different companies, such as paint manufacturers, may give the same color formula different names, often with an emotional or psychological aspect rather than indicating a color nuance.
Remember the main color of last year according to Pantone? "Shining Orchid" Can you tell me exactly what color it is?
