Life is full of colors and choosing color schemes is fun, but a good color scheme is more than just a set of colors that appeal to you. Colorpedia is a tool that will help you to make good color decisions. Colorpedia's design is for casual use, that is why Colorpedia:
- Uses public domain color names instead of names from professional color catalogs. We use the Color Naming Experiment (tinyurl.com/4p5kmx), who asked about color perception to thousands of users across Internet. This democratic approach to color naming makes Colorpedia a complete and accurate source of colors.
- It uses a card deck way of presenting colors. This is to follow Hideaki Chijiiwa's Color Harmony book, one of the sources of inspiration for Colorpedia. You will find this approach very different from the traditional color wheel approach, that we find a little clumsy and too much techie for casual iPhone use.
