==Relationship of red-violet to other colors== Red-violet is part of the red "analogous color group", which also includes [[magenta]], [[red]], [[red-orange]], [[Orange (color)|orange]], [[Gold (color)|gold]], and [[yellow]], i.e., those colors classified as "warm colors", or colors that produce a feeling of warmth (as opposed to "cool colors"). The color that is the [[Complementary color|complement]] of red-violet, [[Spring green (color)#Mint green|mint green]], lies halfway between [[green]] and [[Spring green (color)|spring green]]. It is very close to [[sea green]] but highly [[HSV color space|saturated]] and of a bright [[HSV color space|hue]]. In some traditional usage, red-violet is the name given to an intermediate, or [[tertiary color]] that, along with yellow-orange (gold) and also green-blue ([[cyan]]), forms a [[color wheel]] triad group. Most contemporary usage, however, would list magenta as the name for the tertiary color in question.{{Citation needed|date=February 2025}}
