What is color contrast?

Contrasting colors are colors that differ from

one another. Levels of contrast vary from high
to low, depending on their position on the color
wheel.

For example, colors that are directly opposite

one another on the color wheel have the
highest contrast possible, while colors next to
one another have a low contrast.
Color contrast for the sake
of aesthetic

To say the least, choosing

high contrast colors for a
design is a bold move. Below
are examples of high
contrast colors. These pairs
are directly across from one
another on the color wheel.
They’re definitely a lot to look at. But
sometimes, boldness pays off. Don’t those
colors look a little familiar?
Because of this liability, high color contrast is
not always the best idea to use in design.

At the same time, low color contrast can also

be a bad idea; using these schemes makes it
hard to differentiate between elements.
