Energetic

Color combinations that are ener-

getic often contain red-violet, also known

as fuchsia. It sends an unmistakable mes-

sage of activity. Fuchsia, or magenta, has

such an exuberant personality that in

order to be workable it is often combined

with its complementary hue, chartreuse.

A clash combination using fuchsia and

yellow or green will be exciting for the

moment, but will invariably limit the over-

all effect of the combination and lessen its

workability. Yellow-green, when paired with

fuchsia or magenta, heightens the enthusias-

tic personality of this energetic color.
