Colour Wheel
Breaking it down:
The colour wheel shows the relationship between colours in a circle which helps designers intentionally choose colours that go together for a purpose.
Designers use the colour wheel to pick colours that balance and harmonise, like complementary or analogous schemes, making designs visually appealing.
Different parts of the colour wheel represent moods; warm colours bring energy, cool colours convey calmness.
