On the Style Identity blog, I have dedicated lots of articles to the colour theory and the three dimensions of colour such as “the colour series” (red, green, yellow, …), “colours to avoid” series, “mood boards” etc.

If you have been following my content and/or you are familiar with the colour theory, you may be eager to test your knowledge!

I have prepared a short quiz for you which focuses on the 3 dimensions of colour, i.e. on the colour theory.

Have fun!
