Unity and harmony Unity
is defined as the repetition of color to achieve a unified whole.
Harmony
is the result of a perfect balance between individual color relationships. If the color combinations result in a pleasing whole where no one color stands out, then one has achieved a color harmony. Unity and harmony of a space can be achieved through similarity of color, shape and form. These are inseparable design elements. Uniform distribution and use of color in a complex interior space can harmonize the visual clutter. Color harmonies should be planned to accentuate the interior, not overwhelm the space.
