Complementary colors: Applications & Products

Complementary colors are pairs of colors which, when combined or mixed, cancel each other out (lose chroma) by producing a grayscale color like white or black.[better source needed] When two highly chromatic complementary colors are placed next to each other, they create a strong contrast. Complementary colors may also be called "opposite colors".
