Abstract

Color scheme design is an important process when designing artwork such as illustrations and graphics. Appropriate coloring maximizes the functional and emotional effects of the work. However, there is no unique solution for properly designing the layout of multiple colors. A designer must have enough skills and experiences for accurately presenting his/her targeting impressive quality of the work. This paper proposes a method for automatically creating and presenting a set of candidate color layouts by adjusting a few carefully selected color parameters with color harmony. It enables designers to readily explore various color scheme candidates while considering color harmony of the work. We implemented a color design support system based on the proposed method and conducted experiments for validation.
