Color matching, in the context of design and fashion, refers to the process of combining different colors in a harmonious and visually appealing way. Inspiration for color matching can come from various sources, including nature, art, and cultural influences. It involves understanding color theory, such as complementary colors, analogous colors, and color schemes like monochromatic, analogous, complementary, and triadic. This knowledge helps in creating balanced and aesthetically pleasing color palettes for different applications, be it in fashion, interior design, or graphic design.
