Which term means a strong difference in colors?

• A. Line Types
• B. Value
• C. Color Contrast
• D. Intensity

Answer: (C)

Color contrast is the term for a strong difference between colors, which creates immediate visual emphasis in an arrangement. In floral design, using colors that sit far apart on the color wheel (like red with green or blue with orange) or pairing a highly saturated hue with a muted one makes a focal area pop and adds drama and interest. Value describes how light or dark a color is, not how different the hues are. Intensity (or saturation) refers to how pure or dull a color appears, again focusing on hue quality rather than the difference between colors. Line types relate to the shapes and directions of stems and petals, not color relationships.
