The colour wheel from The Sims 3 was the best design tool in the game. I could replicate colours from pictures of rooms in houses by using the eye dropper and then punching in the RGB numbers so my rooms looked accurate as possible.
I did this too!
And just because things match doesn't mean they have to match exactly. I looked up trending color palettes too, or made someone's shirt the color of their eyes, then made it just a bit darker or a bit less vivid to set things off.
Feel free to ignore the next paragraph:
I realize we're not getting a color wheel for Sims 4, but I agree that if furniture had a same-white, same-black, same-lightwood and same-darkwood, that would be a start. I want to use furniture from different collections, but something needs to be similar for unity. In real life, my bookcases and tv stand are not exactly the same color, but they have the same undertone, and they look good together. The bookcases are large and simple, and impressive for that reason, but the tv stand is more visually interesting. They work together, and most of the furniture in the Sims 4 does not, so I have to use the same things together over and over. They give us more objects, but they aren't versatile because nothing matches. It drives me batty! Here's a cookie for reading this, thanks.
TL/DR: It would be easier to mix and match if different styles came in similar colors. I'd love a small base palette, please.
