Combining colors can be very difficult, but fortunately there are useful tools for this. Such as Itten’s color wheel. This circle consists of the three primary colors (yellow, red and blue), surrounded by the three secondary (mixing) colors and finally the tertiary colors (mixture of more than two primary colors). Using this circle you can see which colors go together. How? Simple: the colors that are next to each other, or directly opposite each other, go well together.
In addition, there are various tools to choose the right basic color. There are interactive apps that allow you to take a photo of your wall or room using augmented reality and immediately see how this color would look. In addition, you also have color testers, with which you can apply the paint to your wall with a 30 ml mini roller to see how it turns out in real life.
