To help you remember what is a tetrad scheme, imagine a square.
When you join the shape of 2 contrasting colours on the colour wheel you make a square.
The word tetrad is also used in the metric system defining land areas. A 2km x 2km square is called a tetrad.
A tetrad is also used in microbiology to define clusters of four cocci bacteria, which are shown as 4 circles arranged in a square.
A tetrad scheme does not need to be high chroma impact colours
Add some natural elements -think of plants and timber as part of the colour scheme
