Hue refers to a pure color without tint or shade. In design, it's used to create a color scheme and convey different emotions.

Value indicates the lightness or darkness of a color. It's used to add depth, contrast, and focus in design.

Primary colors (red, blue, yellow) are the base colors that can combine to create a wide spectrum of other colors. In design, they're used for bold statements and branding.

Tone is produced by adding gray to a color, reducing the saturation. It's useful for creating subtle shifts in a color scheme and a more mature look.

Secondary colors (green, orange, purple) are made by mixing equal parts of two primary colors. They add variety and can be used to accentuate designs.

Tertiary colors are created by mixing a primary and a secondary color. They fill the gaps in a color wheel, providing more nuanced color schemes.

Shade is formed by adding black to a color, making it darker. Shades provide depth and can be used for a more dramatic effect.

Tint is created by adding white to a color, making it lighter. Tints are often used to soften designs and create a gentle or feminine appearance.

Triadic color schemes use three colors equally spaced around the color wheel. This scheme is vibrant, but balanced, and can add a dynamic feel to a design.

Complementary colors are opposite each other on the color wheel and create high contrast. They're used to make elements stand out in a design.

Saturation denotes the intensity or purity of a color. High saturation colors are vivid, while low saturation colors appear washed out, affecting the vibrancy of a design.
