Dusted off an article I wrote last year on generating OKLCH colour palettes, adding a new section exploring the limitations of linear interpolation and how easing equations solved the problem I ran into.

Devising a colour scheme

I recently made some tweaks to the colours of this website. I have always felt that colour theory was one of my weakest points as a designer, so I like to take any opportunity I can to learn more about it.

448 C lover Oct 16

ugly colour of the day: purple 🟪

people who like purple are honestly just weirdos, why go for purple when you could have the beautiful 448 C instead??? maybe those people should get their eyes checked...👁👃👁

I saw Zultanite, a rare #gem in #Turkiye that undergoes the #Alexandrite #colour change effect:

Our cones are not created equal; the short 'blue' wavelength sensor is well separated from the similar 'green' & 'red' curves 👁️

Alexandrite cuts off blue (like a yellow object) but embedded metals absorb the middle spectrum, meaning in black-body curve candlelight the 'green'/'red' ratio gets miscorrected by our colour constancy mechanisms🕯️
