At the same time, we know that plants produce photosynthesis through chlorophyll, supply life elements and produce oxygen needed for life; Animals protect themselves with bright and striking colors or the same colors as the environment, so color is also the origin of life, which promotes the continuation of life and conveys the original essence of this life.

In addition, people also extract raw materials from plants, minerals or metals, such as gamboge, ruby, emerald, amethyst and agate. And made into various pigments instead of natural colors, used for recording life, depicting patterns, dyeing and weaving clothes, decorating living environment, etc. It greatly enriches and beautifies the living environment of human beings and becomes an indispensable part of human life. Therefore, color is one of the original driving forces for the evolution of life in nature and a catalyst for the development of human culture. ?
Today I will share some basic knowledge of color with you.
1. TINT principle
All the colors we know are composed of three primary colors, namely red, yellow and blue. Here, red, yellow and blue refer to magenta, lemon yellow and lake blue respectively.
All other colors are combined with these three colors. For example, the big red (China red) is composed of lemon yellow and magenta, and the green is composed of lemon yellow and lake blue, and so on. I won't give examples here. Interested friends can buy some tricolor pigments and go back for debugging.
2. Color matching principle
I won't describe the color collocation that is too complicated, just say the collocation principle. Simply put, color matching can be divided into same color matching, same color matching and contrast color matching.
Homologous collocation
The color matching of the same color system is a color matching relationship formed by matching different colors of the same tone. Colors with the same hue have the same purity and lightness, and lightness changes slightly according to hue. Different tones will produce different color impressions. Putting all the pure tones together, or it will produce a lively feeling, which can be matched with a more leisurely, bright and clean feeling.
Same color collocation
Tone refers to the overall tendency of colors in a painting, which is a great color effect. Tones are divided into cool tones and warm tones. Red, yellow, orange, purple, brown and similar colors among common colors are regarded as warm colors, while blue, green and cyan are cool colors, and black and white can also be classified as cool colors. The color matching of the same color system is characterized by subtle differences between tones, which is different from the same color system and will not produce a dull feeling. The combination of dark color and dark color can produce a deep sense of darkness, and bright color and light color plus bright color can produce a lively color impression.
Contrast color collocation
Contrast color matching is the color matching of two or more tones that are far apart. Because of the characteristic differences of colors, contrast tones can produce sharp visual contrast and have the power of "matching" or "repelling" to balance them, thus producing a sense of contrast harmony. Due to the horizontal or vertical color matching, the contrast color matching will be different in brightness and purity. For example, the mixture of light color and dark color is the contrast between dark and light; The combination of bright color and gray turbidity color will form different color schemes in purity.
Comparatively speaking, it is easier to match the same color with the same tone, especially in wearing, which is easy to form a sense of integrity and is very calm, while the matching of contrast colors requires more professional eyes and richer knowledge of color matching, which can make people shine at the moment, but in any case, local color changes and most colors are unified to form a better sense of integrity and give people a good visual experience.
In short, as ordinary people, knowing the importance of color, we can make better use of color elements to decorate and enrich our living environment.
As a professional designer or painter, we should understand the natural attribute of color, its function and special significance in life, design and human culture, so as to design more and better products to meet different personal and psychological needs. ?
