Proposal for selecting two‐color combinations with various affections. Part II: Demonstration of the system

The characteristics of the proposed color selection system are shown using several colored figures of two‐color combinations selected by the system. There are four kinds of color feelings in the system, and each feeling is classified into three categories (i.e., high, intermediate, or low). The feelings used are pleasantness, contrast, floridness, and warmth. Users can try the 3⁴ = 81 combinations of feelings by setting the categories for four kinds of feelings. The differences among categories of color feelings are also shown by several colored figures. It is difficult to describe the differences by words. However, it is rather easy to describe by pictures. The proposed color selection system is expected to be a useful tool for assisting color designers. Comments about the proposed system from potential users are reported. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
