Richer colors are created by increasing the saturation, which makes the colors appear more intense, brighter and stronger. A color with high saturation is more eye-catching and appears more vibrant and powerful. This effect can be used to emphasize important elements or to create a vibrant design.

The following triaden shades match the #8AACAA shade: #8AACAA, #AA8AAC and #ACAA8A

The colors should be well chosen to achieve triadic harmony. Let one color dominate and use the other two as accent colors.
