 An orange sofa for example,
accented with cobalt blue cushions. This provides a refreshing
combination.
An Orange, Blue -Green and Blue -Violet split complementary color scheme allows you to introduce other colors whilst still retaining a high contrast scheme. This works well with floral fabrics, using them for drapery or upholstery. The combination is assertive and exuberant.
Orange, Violet and Green, a triadic color scheme creates a bold ad assertive use of orange based on a strong chroma (brightness of the color) but if used with a tint (white added to a color) we get quite a different feel, apricot, mauve and mint creates a warm welcoming use of the color.
Orange, Yellow - Orange and Yellow, an example of an analogous color scheme. This type of scheme is easy on the eye as it uses colors that are beside each other on the color wheel and therefore closely related. It is useful to use when you want to make a harmonious space but does create more movement than a simple monochromatic scheme. Happy, sunny and pleasure seeking comes to mind for this use of orange.
