We're back with Part 2 of my color theory series, and I'm so excited to branch out of the basics, but all of that information is essential for going deeper into understanding just how to make color work at home.
So, for any references -including hex codes for all the key colors- Part 1 is a great place to start. This round, I'm going into a little more about lighting and how lighting affects different colors. This goes way back for me, all the way into working in theater and understanding how light can make or break everything. I went over the basics of understanding lighting -specifically LEDs- a while back too.

As I continue plugging away on the library, the world comes further and further out of the greige era of the past several years and into the technicolor design that I have always gravitated to, I decided to share a little on how I think about color in homes. The basics go right back to primary school days with understanding the color wheel, tints, shades, and tones.
But there is so much more to how color works in a home. From different types of color schemes, to how lighting affects color, and how undertones and overtones can change everything. |
