Abstract

Color perception always depends on subjective factors. When it comes to a color design project, different designers will persist in different opinions. Although, color designing tools are handy to access nowadays, it takes long-term accumulation of color knowledge and abundant experiences of color designing for designers to master color principles and strengthen color perception. Based on objective color analyzing, this study established a visualization system of color harmony theory of family order and its digital model, on which a method of color designing was also developed. This method bridged the gap between objective colors and subjective perception in virtue of three-dimensional visualizing technology. This paper presented the color analyzing and designing toolkits of the project product. The color visualizing and designing system not only accords with designer’s intelligence and experience, but also proposes a new method for color analyzing and teaching.
