Morphology

coordinated = coordinate (transparent) = co + ordinate + ed

The adjective is a straightforward participial form of coordinate, and the harmony or matching sense is a normal extension of the base verb.

Etymology

The word coordinated comes from co- meaning 'together' and order meaning 'put in order'. So when clothes or colours are coordinated, they are arranged 'together in order' to match and look pleasing.
