A good understanding of colour is how you can create an attractive garden – but how can you come by that knowledge?
If combining colours is not something that comes naturally to you, just remember that there are three basic options – harmonious, complementary and clashing. This blog will take a look at each of them.
Harmonious combinations
If you take a look at the colour wheel, the shades close to each other are the harmonious ones. Building your garden around such colours is not as easy as you might think though. To make harmonious combinations work, you really need a scheme with three colours. One of them will be dominant, while the remaining two serve as highlights in the background.
Complementary combinations
This is a popular way to use colour in a garden and it will look great when you view it from your Supremo Tuscany furniture. To find complementary shades on a colour wheel, look for the ones across from each other. Putting them together in your garden will produce an effect that is more dynamic and contrasting. A couple of examples are blue and orange, and yellow and purple.
Clashing combinations
This is the hardest kind of combination to get right, but the point of clashing colours is to be bold. You are trying to create a sort of visual assault – an almost psychedelic experience. One thing to remember though is to employ green as a way of linking the colours together.
Planning the colour scheme for your garden should be a fun adventure, so get started today!
