What it calculates
The “Color Harmony” calculator computes Harmony angle, ° in ° from 2 parameters: base hue (°), type (1 = complementary, 2 = triad, 3 = tetrad, 4 = split-complementary, 5 = analogous).
Used by photographers and videographers when setting up a shoot.
Example calculation
With parameters Base hue = 210 °, Type (1 = complementary, 2 = triad, 3 = tetrad, 4 = split-complementary, 5 = analogous) = 2 the result is 120 °.
