Questions on Color

1. Certain colors can trigger possible past experiences in a person, such as the color of a room could be the same as the color of your first car, therefore making you think back to that time when you had said car. Each color is also represented by certain emotions, and that plays into this as well.

2. Red is an aggressive color, green is calm and refreshing, and violet is regal and dignified.

3. Orange, green, and violet are the secondary colors. Equal amounts of red and yellow make orange, same with yellow and blue to make green, and red and blue to make violet.

4. Green-Blue

5. Hue is the actual color itself (like the name), while value is the lightness or darkness of the color, saying it's bright or dark.

6. Tint is a lighter variation of a color, shade is a darker variation, and tone is when you soften a color to make it appear only slightly different.

7. By adding a neutral color to a hue, it bumps down the intensity and makes it a tint or a shade.

8. Red and orange are warm, blue and violet are cool colors.

9. Monochromatic uses only one hue from the standard color wheel, complementary uses two opposite colors, split-complementary uses one hue with two opposite hues, double-complementary uses two hues, and those two hues opposites, analogous uses related hues from the color wheel, triadic uses 3 colors that are equal distance apart on the color wheel, and neutral uses colors like black and white.

10. If you stray from the colors harmonies, the room could look sloppy or mismatched, and also the amount of light you put in a room influences planning.

11. You must follow one of the color harmonies, and also make sure the room is not too bright or dark, depending on what you want the room to be.

13. For the warm color client, I would suggest darker light to make the colors less abrasive, or else the area could be too bright and loud for a room to read in. I would tell the cool color client to have possibly darker cool colors to invoke more calm, and to make reading much better and even feel more relaxing. Depending on the colors, the light in the room could either make the room very loud and bright, or dark and more soothing.
