Very well written and surprisingly practical information in here.
I've used Paletton before when trying to make a good colour scheme but I've never been impressed with the results. I guess I was using it wrong:
> In the video above, I used the color tool Paletton to start with a tetradic harmony and then decrease the distance. Note how more beautiful the color combinations become.
> Our colors are opposite each other on the color wheel, so they’re clearly complementary. Yay! But they’re also unusable: The two oranges are way too similar. And everything looks so... bright. There’s where we need to change the saturation and lightness.
