I am trying to create a logo with two shapes, one in front of the other.

How could I make the parts that are on top of each other be less opaque, or make the colours mix?

Thanks in advance for your help

Or use Live Paint and give the area where they overlap a different color.

heliad,

You may have a look at blending modes.

Or maybe use intermediate colours or reduced opacity possibly in connexion with a division of the paths where the overlapping part(s) form(s) tis/their own path(s); you can use Pathfinder Divide (and Ungroup or hold Alt/Option and use the Direct Selection Tool (after deselecting the (whole) Group).
