Triadic Color Schemes






	Triadic Schemes. A love triangle of color. Lighting conditions in this room will change the way the color is perceived. The direct sunlight shining through this bay window will provide a true representation of the colors in the room. Here colors are at their most vibrant. In the evening, the artificial light from the recessed incandescent lights, table lamps and the fire will tone down the colors considerably.

	Hint: A bit of black in a room will enhance all of the other colors in a space.

	Hint: It's a good idea to "try out" a color. Purchase a quart of paint to do a patch test on the wall to see how it looks under various lighting conditions.
