Colour Theory Experimentation

    In this blog, I want to share the colour experiment based on the colour theory, which is the complementary, split complementary, polychromatic, and analogous.

    The Design

    This is the school uniform for girls design that I am likely to use for the colour theory experiment. This school uniform is inspired by the Japanese uniform and military uniform. 

    Complementary

    The complementary colours that I used were muted purple and yellow. However, I do not like this colour because it is too pale for the school uniform, especially purple, which seems off and unsuited to the design. 

    Split Complementary

    

    I used the split complementary colours of blue, orange, and purple. I used blue as the main colour for the school uniform, orange for the stripes visible on the design and the tartan stripes, and purple for the tartan pattern. In my opinion, this is better than the complementary colour because it is more suitable for the design, and the colours complement one another.

    Polychromatic 1

    This is the polychromatic colour theory. I used pink, violet, orange, green, blue, and more. I like this combination of these colours because the colour shows the feminine, and the design shows the masculine simultaneously in one style

    Polychromatic 2

    I tried polychromatic colour theory again to try another colour as my experiment. I like this colour combination, but the double colour on the suit seems off. Rather than putting two colours together, I am likely to use one colour, which is burgundy or crimson red, rather than combining red and brown.

    Analogous

    This is the analogous colour theory. I used dark green, light green, and yellow as my palette. I like this colour because it gives a unique side to school uniforms; school uniforms rarely use green as their main colour. However, I will not use this colour as the school uniform because the colour is not suitable to the concept of the school colour, especially for the building and the logo.
