Cisco has tested a broad spectrum of hues to identify the paint colors that work best with Cisco TelePresence camera, lighting and plasma technology, while also complementing the skin tones of participants and creating a comfortable atmosphere. Cisco TelePresence technology performs best when colors are neutral and reflect a certain amount of light. Our first and second generations of color palettes use warm earth tones and neutral tones to ensure participants are portrayed in the most accurate manner possible. Our newest color palettes build on all the previous concepts, adding flexibility through a three-color approach. They also provide greater design detail, with recommendations for fabrics and carpets. The three color categories include: • Field, or main color • Complement, or secondary optional color • Detail color for trims and moldings These combine to create an immersive Cisco TelePresence experience. You can learn about the three color categories in more detail on page 22. The physical components in a Cisco TelePresence room, including lighting, furniture, decorations, give the space its identity and provide an opportunity for corporate branding. Organizations are advised to design their immersive Cisco TelePresence rooms to reflect both their corporate and local cultures. Consulting with your organization’s corporate branding team is encouraged. Note: This color guide is used in conjunction with the Cisco TelePresence Room Design Guide and the Cisco TelePresence Room Readiness Assessment (RRA) process to insure the best Cisco TelePresence experience.
