Creating an Energetic Space Using a Triad Color Scheme From the Color Wheel

Creating energy and fun in a space revolves around the colors you choose.  The color wheel is a great place to start and is easy to use once you understand the way the color wheel works.  All of us know that  the primary colors are red, blue and yellow.  All other colors come from the blending of these colors.  The fun starts when you choose colors from opposite sides of the color wheel. The two color wheels below demonstrate a SPLIT COMPLIMENTARY color scheme and a  TRIAD color scheme which utilize colors on opposite sides of the color wheel.

This Split Complimentary room, from colorindesign.net  shows a green sofa with accents of orange and a magenta rug. There is plenty of energy and fun in this room!

Colorful rooms are perfect for kids' bedrooms and teen spaces. What kid wouldn't love a fun, colorful space to hang out in?
This colorful room is designed off of a Complimentary color scheme which consist of colors directly across from each other on the color wheel.  While using such fabulous colors, it is often necessary to give the eye a place to rest.  Usually a designer will place white in a colorful space which allows the eye to pause and relax.  

So, does your room seem unbalanced or lifeless?  Try out these different color schemes to bring your room to life!
