2. ELEMENTS OF DESIGN
Elements of design are “tools”. Just like the carpenter has a
hammer and saw, the designer has the elements.
There are 4 elements of design: Line, Form, COLOR, & Texture.
Color is a property of light. A color spectrum is
produced by a beam of light as it passes through
a prism. Although the number of colors is
unlimited…more than 10 million have been
identified, and several hundreds have been
reproduced by scientists.
4. Primary Colors…
Red, Blue, and Yellow

Red Primary colors
cannot be man-
made by mixing
other colors
together.
A pigment is color from a biological source, which when used in housing
and design applications can be natural or synthetic (manmade).

Tertiary Colors… Yellow-green,
Blue-green, Blue-Violet, Red-Violet,
Red-orange, Yellow-orange
The tertiary colors are also
referred to as the intermediate
colors. Tertiary colors are made
by mixing a primary with a
secondary color… the primary
color is always listed first. For
example, when the primary
color of yellow is mixed with
the secondary color named
green, the new tertiary color is
called yellow-green.
Tertiary colors can be expanded further, such as mixing blue and blue-
green together. The result would be the color blue-blue-green. Perhaps
we would name that color “teal” to be less confusing.
7. Neutral Colors…
Neutral colors include black, white, and brown. They also
include all the tints and shades of black, white, and brown…
so include colors known as tan, beige, gray, cream, etc.
Neutral colors can be made by mixing:
black and white
complementary colors
all three primaries together (plus some black or white)
Neutral colors blend well with
all other colors.
They enhance and strengthen
the other colors around them.
Stone such as slate, brick,
marble, etc.; metallics such as
brass, pewter, gold, chrome
etc.; and glass fall into the
neutral category.
Black is the
absence of
“light”;
white is the
absence of
“color”.
9. “INTENSITY” OF COLORS
Intensity is the brightness or dullness
of a color. It is sometimes called
“chroma”.
The intensity changes by using the
complementary color. The degree of
brightness is referred to as
“saturation”.
Place a hue beside
its complement to
make it appear
brighter.
Add the complementary color to a hue to make the hue “dull”. When
complementary colors are mixed, grays and browns can result.
Saturated less saturated less saturated Saturated
10. “VALUE” OF COLORS
In nature there are hundreds of different
steps in value that are sometimes not
easily distinguished by the human eye.
Value is the lightness or
darkness of a color. To
combine a hue with black is
called a SHADE. To combine a
hue with white is called a TINT.
To combine a hue with black
and white is called a TONE.
Remember… colors appear darker when placed on rough textures.
Paint appears darker when it dries on the wall. Artificial incandescent
and fluorescent lighting changes the appearance of some colors.
11. Color Schemes
There are certain groups of
colors that work together very
well in interiors…they might be
referred to as Color Schemes or
Color Harmonies.
A color scheme can include hues,
any values (including tints,
shades, tones), or intensities of
that hue, and any neutrals.
Make sure when using color
schemes to select colors that you
or your client likes.
Color schemes of adjoining
rooms may need to be
coordinated.
Although some designers
prescribe to the idea that “beauty
is in the eyes of the beholder”,
most prefer a “tasteful”
approach. Taste is defined as a
cultured appreciation for
aesthetic quality or sensibility.
12. Monochromatic
A color scheme using one
color, and tints, tones and
shades of that color.
Red-violet
Violet

more colors next to each
other on the color wheel.

using colors
opposite each
other on the color
wheel.

sets of complementary
colors.

16. Split Complementary
A color scheme using one
color, and the colors on either
side of it’s complement. This
color scheme, along with the
double complementary are
more difficult to achieve in a
tasteful fashion.
Red-violet

colors equal distance from
each other on the color wheel.

This scheme is often “accented” with a
small amount of another hue, and called
the ACCENTED NEUTRAL.
19. Fad
Some designers base a room decor on a
popular “theme” instead of a prescribed color
scheme. It should only be used if it reflects the
personality and preferences of the client.
The bedroom above is decorated
around a nautical “theme”,
disregarding any specific color
harmony.
This red, white, and blue color
combination is only acceptable for
those who prefer the patriotic “theme”.
20. What doesn’t count…
As you put together or identify the background
and furnishing samples that make up your
color scheme, there are some items in the room
that do not have to be considered:
Living things,
such as pets,
fresh flowers,
and plants.
Books and
magazines.
The colors of a
painting, although
the predominant
color, frame, and
mat colors may be
considered.
21. Warm Colors
Colors on the warm side of the
spectrum…red, yellow, orange.
They usually also include the
neutral black and brown tones.
Red-violet
Violet
Blue-violet
Blue
Blue-green
Green
Yellow-green

Yellow-orange Orange

Warm colors are especially good in rooms with northern exposures.
22. Cool Colors
Colors on the cool side of
the spectrum…blue, violet,
green. They usually
include the neutral white
and gray tones.
Red-violet

Yellow-orange Orange
Red-orange
Red
Cool colors are especially good in rooms with southern exposures.
23. Light Colors
“RECEDE”
Dark Colors “ADVANCE”
When rooms are painted pastel
or light colors/neutrals, they
seem bigger. The colors
“recede” or appear to move
away from you. Remember when
selecting paint… the paint dries
darker on the wall.
When rooms are painted
dark colors/neutrals,
they seem smaller. The
colors “advance” or
appear to move in closer
to you.
Large prints or very
“busy” prints may also
make a room appear
smaller.
24. Choosing Color Schemes…
Color schemes look best when one color dominates.
Your dominant color should cover about two-thirds
of the room area. An equal split between dominant
and subordinate colors is less pleasing.
Evaluate parts of the room that cannot be changed,
then consider color choices that will complement
existing furnishings.
Base your color scheme on the exposure of the room
(choose warm colors for northern exposures and
cool colors for southern exposures; choose lighter
colors for small rooms and darker colors for large
rooms; choose colors you like; choose colors that
complement a particular fabric, wallpaper, work of
art, etc.
Consider the psychological and physiological effects
of color…
25. Physiological Effects of Individual Colors
Color creates powerful psychological and physiological effects.
Psychological effects are sensed in the mind; physiological effects actually
cause a change in the body. It is important to note that people may react
differently to the same color, based on their previous experiences or learned
behavior. Research studies have shown that:
Color affects eye's perception of weight and size. Dark and bright colors seem
heavier than light and cool colors. (However, it is interesting that the opposite effect is
true in fashion design. Dark colors tend to slim the figure, whereas light colors are usually thought
to make one look heavier.)
Color affects a person's perception of temperature. Studies have indicated
that body temperature actually fluctuates in response to various colors. For
example, red, orange, and yellow can raise one's temperature; cool colors
have the opposite reaction.
Color can cause feelings of boredom and calmness, or stimulation and
liveliness. Colors may cause the nervous system to become agitated, and the
body reacts in negative ways to this stimulus.
Colors can affect one's reaction to sounds, taste, odors, and time perception.
Colors can improve the rate of recovery of sick patients.

The first 6 pages will each be set up to illustrate a neutral,
monochromatic, complementary, analogous, triad, and fad color
scheme according to the sample given. Include the title, your
name, and a color wheel that is suitably colored and labeled for

The 7th page will include a hand-painted value and intensity
scale, using the tempera paint colors of your choice.
On the 8th page, use colored pencils to color each picture in a manner that
illustrates the psychological associations of color.
