Primary colours
- Primary colours are types of colours that are combined together to make different shades of colours.
- Primary colours in a RYB wheel are usually red, yellow, and blue.
- These colours can be combined in different sizes, brightness, tints (bright colours), and shades (dark colours).
-Combining all primary colours (red, yellow, and blue) together would cause the colour to become black.
-Primary colours are used in pigments of paints, inks, coloured fabrics, and coloured coatings.

Examples of tertiary colours in a RYB wheel:
Complementary colours
- Complementary colours are types of colours that are opposite from each other in a colour wheel.
- Examples of complementary colours are red and green, orange and blue.
- Complementary colours are usually in groups of 2 colours
- When used at a full saturation, complementary colours can create colours that have a strong and rich look.
- However, complementary colours can be difficult to use for large measurements of colour,
- Usually complementary colours do not work well when using text.
- These colours are also used for balance in Colour therapy.
Examples of complementary colours in a RYB wheel:
Analogous colours
- Analogous colours are colours that are beside each other on a colour wheel.
- An example of Analogous colours are orange, yellow-orange, and yellow colours that are combined together.
- Analogous colours are usually in groups of 3 colours.
- Analogous colours usually work well together and that these colours also have a tendency to make designs that are usually both relaxing and peaceful.
- Analogous colours are usually used in nature and that these colours can be both melodic and appealing to look at.
- When using analogous colours, the first colour should be the dominant colour, the second colour should be the supporting colour, and the third colour should be the accented colour.

Triadic colours
- Triadic colours are colours that evenly space out around the colour wheel. Usually the best way to place these colours on the wheel is by using a triangle that has equal sides of colour in the wheel.
- The three types of triadic colours are primary, secondary, and tertiary triads.
- Primary triads consist of red, orange, and yellow colours while secondary colours consist of of orange, purple, and green colours. An example of tertiary triads are yellow-orange, blue-green, and red-violet colours combined together.
- Triadic colours also are in groups of 3 colours.
- Usually Triadic colours look rich and colourful, even if the colours that are used are both light and unsaturated.
- When using Triadic colours, the colours that are used should have balance. The first colour should be dominant, while the other two colours should be accented.
- The three types of triadic colours are primary, secondary, and tertiary triads.
- Primary triads consist of red, orange, and yellow colours while secondary colours consist of of orange, purple, and green colours. An example of tertiary triads are yellow-orange, blue-green, and red-violet colours combined together.

Examples of Triadic colours in a RYB wheel:
- Split complementary colours are a similar form of the complementary colour scheme but it involves a base colour with two secondary colours. Instead of using colours that are complementary, split complementary uses two colours that are evenly placed around the complementary colour in a colour wheel.
- An example of split complementary colours are orange, red violet, and green colours combined together.
- Split complementary colours come in groups of 3 colours.
- Split complementary colours have a similar visual difference with complementary colours, but it has lesser traction in the colour.
- For beginners, split complementary colours are a good option because the split complementary colour scheme is usually a difficult scheme to mishandle.

Examples of split complementary colours in an RYB wheel:
- Rectangular colours are colours that involves the use of four different types of colours that are separated into complementary colour pairs of two.
- An example of rectangular colours are green, blue, red, and orange colours combined together. Green and red are complementary to each other, while orange and blue are complementary to each other, forming two complementary pairs.
- Rectangular colours usually have plenty of differences in colour.
- The best way to use rectangular colours is by allowing one of the four colours to be the dominant colour.
- It is important to pay close attention to the balance of warm and cool colours when using rectangular colours for designing purposes.

Square colours
- Square colours are colours that has a similar concept to the rectangular colour scheme, however this time the four colours evenly space out in the colour wheel. Square colours also feature two complementary pairs as well.
- An example of square colours are red, yellow orange, green, and blue violet colours combined together. Red and green are complementary to each other, while yellow orange and blue violet are complementary to each other, forming two complementary pairs.
- Square colours also work best by allowing one of the four colours to be dominant.

Monochromatic colours
- Monochromatic colours are colours that uses a variation of only one colour by either making it darker or brighter.
- Monochromatic colours only uses shades of only one hue of colour that are made through changing the amount of brightness and saturation in a base colour.
- Usually black and white colours are always involved in monochromatic colours because white can make the base monochromatic colour brighter while black can make the base monochromatic colour darker.
- Monochromatic colours are usually very relaxing and smooth to look at even if its base colour is warm/aggressive.
- Accented and highlighted colours are usually harder to find in monochromatic colours.
- Monochromatic colours only uses shades of only one hue of colour that are made through changing the amount of brightness and saturation in a base colour.

- Monochromatic colours are usually very relaxing and smooth to look at even if its base colour is warm/aggressive.
- Accented and highlighted colours are usually harder to find in monochromatic colours.
Examples of monochromatic colours in RYB wheel:
- Hue is a term used that describes how a colour can be similar to or different from all the colours in the colour wheel.
-Hue is what describes the name of the colour.
- For example, when describing a colour as "reddish orange", it means that it is defined using two hues.
- One hue of colour can also have many different names and variations of that colour.
- For example, a hue of red includes colours such as pink and maroon.
- One hue of colour can change depending on how bright or dark the hue of colour is.
- Usually, there is not plenty of hues, however there are plenty of colours to choose from.

Examples of hue in a RYB wheel:
Saturation
- Saturation is what shows how intense the brightness or darkness of a colour is.
- Increasing saturation causes colour to become darker.
- Decreasing saturation causes colour to become lighter.
- For example, when saying colours such as "light red" or "dark blue", it shows the change in saturation for each colour. The colour light red means that the saturation of red is lower or decreased, while the colour dark blue means that the saturation of blue is higher or increased.
- Increasing saturation causes colour to become darker.
- Decreasing saturation causes colour to become lighter.
- For example, when saying colours such as "light red" or "dark blue", it shows the change in saturation for each colour. The colour light red means that the saturation of red is lower or decreased, while the colour dark blue means that the saturation of blue is higher or increased.
Examples of saturation in RYB wheel:
Tints and shades
- Tints are a result of including white to a colour in a colour wheel, while shades are a result of including black to a colour in a colour wheel. Tints causes colours to be brighter, while shades causes colours to be darker.
- Both tints and shades allow different monochrome colours to be created by simply including layers of white or black to a base colour.
- For example, if the base colour used is light red, then sets of monochrome colours can be created by adding two kinds of tints (two brighter reds) and two kinds of shades (two darker reds)
- Both tints and shades allow different monochrome colours to be created by simply including layers of white or black to a base colour.
- For example, if the base colour used is light red, then sets of monochrome colours can be created by adding two kinds of tints (two brighter reds) and two kinds of shades (two darker reds)
Examples of tints and shades in a RYB wheel:
Luminance
- Luminance is the term used to show and describe how bright an colour is.
- Colours usually can become lighter or darker by altering its lightness, however in luminance, each colour has individual luminance values.
- Blue has the smallest amount of luminance value (44%) while yellow has the largest amount of luminance value (94%)
- It is important to remember luminance values of hues because it makes it easier for hues to work well with colour.
- Hues with luminance values above 50% causes luminance levels to become smaller when saturation levels become smaller.
- Hues with luminance values below 50% causes luminance levels to become larger when saturation levels become larger.
- Smaller luminance values causes the colour to be darker.
- Larger luminance values causes the colour to be lighter.
- Colours usually can become lighter or darker by altering its lightness, however in luminance, each colour has individual luminance values.

- Smaller luminance values causes the colour to be darker.
- Larger luminance values causes the colour to be lighter.
Examples of Luminance in RYB wheel:
CMYK colours
- CMYK colours are the main colours that are used for printing images/text with colour in printers.
- CMYK colours are subtractive colours because it has to use light reflecting from images/words that were printed.
- In CYMK colour schemes, cyan, magenta, yellow, and black are the primary colours.
- In CYMK colour schemes, blue, red, and green are the secondary colours, which are caused by combining the primary CMYK colours together.
- Combining cyan and magenta colours make blue.
- Combining magenta and yellow colours make red.
- Combining yellow and cyan colours make green.

Examples of CYMK colours (both primary and secondary) :
Addictive colours (RGB colours)
- RGB colours are the main types of colour that are used for computer monitors, usually found in graphics, programming, web browsers, and web pages.
- RGB colours are also used in TV and movie screens as well.
- In RGB colour schemes, the primary colours are red, green, and blue.
- In RGB colour schemes, the secondary colours are yellow, cyan, and magenta, caused by combining the primary RGB colours together,

- Combining blue and red primary colours make magenta.
- Tints and shades can also be added to RGB colours to make it brighter or darker.
Examples of addictive colours (both primary and secondary):
Pantone colours (PMS colour system)
- The PMS colour system is a colour matching system that printing industries use to help produce spot colours, which are colours that allow colour to be printed through its own type of ink.
- Applications that do colour printing well can clearly identify different types of colours by specifying the name or number of the pantone.
- PMS colour systems usually work efficiently with spot colours, but does not work as well with process colours, which are usually identified and described through the CYMK colour scheme.
