Tetradic
Colour Palette
This is a scheme using two sets of complementary colors. Having four colors to work with can be more challenging, but it can also produce a full and rich color scheme. Using a dominant color with three accent colors is one way to harmonize a tetradic color scheme. The other way to create a pleasant tetradic scheme is to use muted tones of the four colors. Any complementary scheme will contain warm and cool colors and requires special care balancing the two. These colors form a rectangle on the color wheel.
