Over deze aflevering

It's often said that colour preferences are simply a matter of personal taste, but actually some have been backed up by science, especially in the field of art history. For the last two centuries, it has been customary in art and design to come up with colour combinations based on what is known the colour wheel. It’s a visual representation of the spectrum of colors, organized in a circular format. This wheel divides colours into primary: red, blue, and yellow, secondary: green, orange, and purple, and tertiary colors, creating a harmonious spectrum. But what is it? Where does it come from? What’s the point of it? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
