Class Exercise 1:Burberry Colour Theories

This classic tartan Burberry pattern adopts the analogous colour scheme.

It uses mainly two hues,which are pantone 600(beige:low value and low intensity of RO)and pantone 235(low value and low intensity of R;high value and low intensity of R).

White and grey , achoromatic colurs,with variation of value,are also be used.

There are saturation constant as same intensity of RO and R are used.

The core colour of this Burberry pattern is pink(pantone 1775).

Different levels of value of the pink has used.Grey,achromatic colour,with variation of value is also combined.

It is in one hue format and simply adopts the monochromatic colour scheme.

This pattern is quite girlish.

Low value and high value of blue(pantone 285),low value and high value of cyan(pantone 297) are used as the largest proportion of this pattern.

Analogous colour scheme is used.

Low intensity of red is also added to give a more interesting feeling and it becomes not monotonous than before.

And all these colurs are at the similar intensity,which giving a constant saturation.

I think this pattern has little scotland style.

Red(pantone 8052x)with high chroma is used and combined with achromatic colour,grey,black and white.

It is obvious that monochromatic colour scheme is adopted.

The white stripe adding a outstanding  effect.

Two adjacent hues,green (pantone 362)and blue-green(pantone 285,with low value and high value) are used and combined with the red (pantone 192)and bright red-orange(pantone 102)thin stripes.

The blue-green and green are in greater proportion.

Thus,double complementary colour scheme is adopted.
