I searched for it in PVN and found nothing. ¿Does anyone swear by certain schemes and theories about color for their designs?

Use color and go with your instincts.

I had a color theory workshop in college, with Leo Monohan. He does paper scuplture, crazy stuff, but honestly a cool way to find colors is with acrylic paint, make tints and tones, mix colors, make custom colors.. a more hands on approach.

I took a couple of color theory courses in school. They didn't do too much for me, I've always been awful with color usage.
The one thing I have learned since then is that nature is a master of color harmonies and contrasts. So I now I just steal from nature whenever I can.
