In a current project, I want to display formulas with different colours on black background. My idea is that they are easy to distinguish, have good contrast to the black background and fit together nicely.
Here is a first draft:
Currently, I chose these 5 colors: #09B0EC
, #ED3EFA
, #f3ae99
, #20BF55
, #F7F858
,
which I created with a contrast tool and a palette generator.
Question: How can I make sure that my colours fit together nicely? At the moment, I chose them only by eye. And further: When I want to add two more colours, how would I choose them wisely?
The colours are only labels for equations. Their only technical function is to simplify their recognition in mathematical derivations. I don't know much about colour harmony, but I am open to any suggestions to enhance and expand my palette so that math people can also enjoy the beauty of harmonic colours.
