Split complementary is a lot like complementary colors, except instead of having two colors you have a triad consist of one color, and then the two colors next to the color opposite the first, as illustrated by the first image. The second image is a great example of the use of split complementary colors in interior design. They use the color scheme of red, yellow-green, and blue-green, creating a harmonious relationship between the yellow-green and blue-green, with bright focal points of red.
