Colour Harmonious Proportions

Colours have relative strengths, for example Yellow is a strong colour and Violet is quite weak. If you put equal amounts of these two colours they would be unbalanced, there is a near numerical method of calculating this. The numbers in this table show the relative strengths of the colours. For example, 3 squares of Yellow would be balanced by 9 squares of Violet. 4 squares of Orange would be balanced by 8 squares of Blue.

• 3 - Yellow - Strong
• 4 - Orange
• 6 - Red / Green
• 8 - Blue
• 9 - Violet - Weak
