Abstract

The current study falls within the scope of experimental research that is concerned with the concept of color harmony, COLOR
HARMONY, as an investigator of one of the aesthetic phenomena in design, which aims to develop compatible color groups that
contribute to the development of teaching color science studying plastic arts, especially in the field of design and its structural and
aesthetic foundations. Where the researcher seeks, through a careful analytical reading of the color circle of the German scientist
Johannes Atten-Johannes IT 1823-1749 (TEN AD), which is the most commonly used as a main component of the curricula for
teaching color science and its characteristics in many international art academies, to make a modification in its design And its
shape allows the creation of compatible color groups that are in total multiples of what it allows through its current design, and
based on the system that Athen adopted in reaching compatible color groups using geometric shapes, as a determinant of COLOR
CHORDS color combinations of two, three, four or more, according to The mathematical analytical relationship that confirms the
validity of his system, which the researcher reached in a previous study.
