Color Tehory

Color theory defines several key color concepts including complementary colors which are directly opposite on the color wheel, tints which are lighter versions of a color created by adding white, and tones which are darker versions created by adding gray. Color systems like RGB, Pantone, and CMYK allow designers to accurately reproduce and match colors across different mediums. Common color deficiencies that impact color perception are protanopia, deuteranopia, and tritanopia which impact the ability to distinguish red, green, and blue/yellow respectively.
