The Fall 2014 Pantone guide offers colors that can refresh your product offerings including wearables, décor, promotional items and gifts. “This is a season of untypical colors—more reflective of the imagination and ingenuity, which makes for an artful collection of colors and combinations not bound by the usual hues for fall,” noted Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. “There is a feminine mystique that is reflected throughout the palette, inspired by the increasing need for women everywhere to create an individual imprint.” The Pantone Fall 2014 Palette consists of: PANTONE 18-3224 Radiant Orchid PANTONE 19-3955 Royal Blue PANTONE 16-1107 Aluminum PANTONE 18-1550 Aurora Red PANTONE 14-0837 Misted Yellow PANTONE 19-2047 Sangria PANTONE 15-3207 Mauve Mist PANTONE 18-1421 Cognac PANTONE 19-4037 Bright Cobalt PANTONE 18-0322 Cypress Radiant Orchid: The Color of the Year, Radiant Orchid, is a flexible shade of purple.

  • Un Hommage À Thomas Pynchon's Rainbow
    Un Hommage à Thomas Pynchon’s Rainbow Peter Bamfield Editions Eclipse, 2012 One of the great novels of the 20th century is Thomas Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow. For those interested in the use of color as a code in literature it is a positive goldmine. Consequently, many erudite essays have been written about this aspect of the work. My activity in this area has involved an examination and compilation of the phrases in which these color codes appear. Using this database I have constructed a reading of the novel based on these phrases. In carrying out this process I set myself the following constraints; . Each phrase abstracted from the novel must contain at least one color term. The words in each phrase must be in the order used by Pynchon. The phrases subsequently used to construct sentences to be in the order in which they occur in the novel. The only freedom to be in the selection of appropriate punctuation. Arguably, the four parts of the novel can be divided into a total of eighty-one episodes. I have followed this convention and hence produced eighty-one sentences covering the four parts. All the words used in this Hommage are Thomas Pynchon’s. Editions Eclipse: http://english.utah.edu/eclipse Part 1 Beyond the Zero Episode 1 With blue shadows, cockades the color of lead, globular lights painted a dark green, velvet black surfaces. At each brown floor, a tartan of orange, rust and scarlet. Giant bananas cluster, radiant yellow, humid green. A short vertical white line begins to vanish in red daybreak.

  • Mapping Ethnicity: Color Use in Depicting Ethnic Distribution
    12 cartographic perspectives Number 40, Fall 2001 Mapping Ethnicity: Color Use in Depicting Ethnic Distribution Jenny Marie Johnson Color effects are in the eye of the beholder. Yet the deepest and truest secrets of color effects are, I know, University of Illinois at invisible even to the eye, and are beheld by the heart alone. Urbana-Champaign (Itten 1970) Maps are made for a specific purpose, or set of purposes. No individual cartographer or cartography-producing organization produces a map just for the sake of producing a map. People and organizations have agendas; maps tell stories. Map stories are told through symbols and colors. Colors have meaning. Perhaps color choice is intended to indi- cate an organization’s attitudes toward the phenomena being mapped. Color on maps of ethnic groups can be evaluated inter-textually by plac- ing the maps into the context of their producers and the time of their production. The colors, and their meanings, that are used to represent particular groups will reflect the map producer’s attitudes toward the ethnic groups. If these attitudes are unknown, they could be hypoth- esized by evaluating color usage. Color choices may act as indicators of opinions otherwise unexpressed. ROLE OF THE ORGANIZATION uch of the thinking about the role that organizations play in produc- ing supposedly scientific maps was done by Harley (1988) during the latter half of his career. He began this work by examining antiquarian maps in a context far greater than the normal “map as beautiful object”. Instead he examined them with the idea that the maps were artifacts produced by agents of organizations with particular goals and objectives.

    SESUG 2016 Paper RV-180 Color Speaks Louder than Words Jaime Thompson, Zencos Consulting ABSTRACT What if color blind people saw real colors and it was everyone else who's color blind? Imagine finishing a Rubik's cube wondering why people find it so difficult. Or relying on the position, rather than the color of a traffic light in determining when to stop and go. Color matters! Color enhances our perspective, it can change how we feel, but it also varies culturally. In western countries, red and white have opposing symbolic meanings to eastern countries which in turn can send the wrong message if misused. Color can fundamentally change a report, therefore, finding the right color palettes for data visualizations is essential. In this paper, I will cover the significance of color and how to pick a palette for your next SAS® Visual Analytics report. INTRODUCTION Color is used in the workplace to improve performance and productivity. Color is used in marketing to establish identity. Color is used in paintings to communicate emotion. Color is used in stores to sell products. Color is everywhere and generally applied purposely. The government of Australia spent several months researching to find the worlds ugliest color. Why? They were looking for a color so distasteful that if it was used for packaging tobacco products it would deter people from smoking [7]. Just as the Australian government needed to pick the right color for a specific job, it is essential to select the right colors for your data visualization so their meanings are conveyed and interpreted correctly.

Color is an important defining characteristic of historical homes. Like a home’s deco- rative architectural details, color reflects both the style of a house and the time when it was built. Choosing historically appropriate exterior colors and using them in historically appropriate ways can highlight the architectural character of a home, strengthen its historical integrity and enhance the continuity of an his- toric district. Less appropriate choices can obscure the unique architectural features of a home, weaken its historical value and disrupt the historical context of a neigh- borhood. Recognizing the importance of color to the value of historical homes, several national companies, such as Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, California Paints and Valspar, have worked with preservation groups like the National Trust for Historic Preserva- tion and Historic New England to produce a wide array of historically accurate colors for consumers.

  • Color Harmonization, Deharmonization and Balancing in Augmented Reality
    applied sciences Article Color Harmonization, Deharmonization and Balancing in Augmented Reality Emanuele Marino 1,* , Fabio Bruno 1 and Fotis Liarokapis 2 1 Department of Mechanical, Energy and Management Engineering (DIMEG), University of Calabria, Via Pietro Bucci, 87036 Arcavacata di Rende, Italy; [email protected] 2 CYENS—Centre of Excellence, Nicosia 1016, Cyprus; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Color schemes play a crucial role in blending virtual objects with the real environment. Good color schemes improve user’s perception, which is of crucial importance for augmented reality. In this paper, we propose a set of novel methods based on the color harmonization methodology to recolor augmented reality content according to the real background. Three different strategies are proposed—harmonic, disharmonic, and balance—that allow for satisfying different needs in different settings depending on the application field. The first approach aims to harmonize the colors of virtual objects to make them consistent with the colors of the real background and reach a more pleasing effect to a human eye. The second approach, instead, can be adopted to generate a set of disharmonious colors with respect to real ones to be associated with the augmented virtual content to improve its distinctiveness from the real background. The third approach balances these goals by achieving a compromise between harmony and good visibility among virtual and real objects. Furthermore, the proposed re-coloring method is applied to three different case studies by adopting the three strategies to meet three different objectives, which are specific for each case study. Several parameters are calculated for each test, such as the covered area, the color distribution, and the set of Citation: Marino, E.; Bruno, F.; generated colors.
