Question about color palettes

[Kp4ws]

Hello so there’s some things I just want to clarify about creating color palettes.

1. Whether we’re creating a darker color, or a lighter color, increasing the saturation will cause more contrast and vice versa. Correct?
2. If I’m using color (such as pink) which is on the right side of blue, do I want to shift the hue to the left instead of the right if I’m creating a darker color (and vice versa for a lighter color) ?

Hi,

Thanks for the great question.

1. Yes thats my understanding of it as well
2. Probably a combination of the two moving the hue to the left towards the blue and the colour picker down towards the bottom left rather than top left.

I would experiment with both until you get the color you are looking for

Hope this helps
