Color Theory Guide

Complementary Colors
Complementary colors sit opposite each other on the color wheel (180° apart). They create high contrast and visual tension, making them ideal for call-to-action buttons and important UI elements.
Analogous Colors
Analogous colors are adjacent on the color wheel (±30°). They create harmonious, comfortable designs that feel cohesive and natural. Great for backgrounds and subtle gradients.
Triadic Colors
Triadic schemes use three colors equally spaced around the wheel (120° apart). They offer balanced contrast while maintaining harmony—perfect for vibrant, playful designs.
Tetradic (Square) Colors
Four colors arranged in a square on the color wheel (90° apart). This scheme offers the most variety but requires careful balance to avoid visual chaos.
WCAG Accessibility Standards
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define minimum contrast ratios for text readability:
AA
Normal Text

4.5:1 ratio minimum

AA
Large Text

3:1 ratio minimum (18pt+ or 14pt+ bold)

AAA
Normal Text (Enhanced)

7:1 ratio minimum

AAA
Large Text (Enhanced)

4.5:1 ratio minimum

Our contrast checker automatically calculates these ratios and tells you if your color combination passes or fails each level.
