Color Properties Explained

Color Family

The primary color group based on hue position on the color wheel. Determines the basic color name like red, blue, or green. This is the most fundamental way we categorize colors.

Temperature

Warmth or coolness perceived from the color. Reds, oranges, and yellows are considered warm colors, while blues, greens, and purples are cool. Temperature affects mood and spatial perception.

Intensity

How pure and vivid the color appears. High intensity means bright, saturated colors with minimal gray, while low intensity means muted, desaturated colors. Also called saturation or chroma.

Colorfulness

How much the color differs from neutral gray. High colorfulness appears vibrant and chromatic, low colorfulness appears dull and achromatic. Related to but distinct from saturation.

Brightness

How light or dark the color appears. Ranges from very dark (near black) to very light (near white). Also called lightness or value. Different from intensity as a color can be bright but not intense.

Wavelength

The light wavelength that creates this hue, measured in nanometers (nm). The visible spectrum ranges from 380nm (violet) to 750nm (red). Each hue corresponds to a specific wavelength range.

Energy Level

Visual stimulation the color provides. High energy colors are active, exciting, and attention-grabbing, while low energy colors are calm, soothing, and passive. Affects viewer engagement.

Emotion

Feelings commonly associated with the color based on cultural, psychological, and biological factors. Different colors evoke different moods, memories, and emotional responses in viewers.

Accessibility & Readability Explained

Relative Luminance

The brightness of a color relative to pure white, calculated using a weighted formula that accounts for human perception. Higher values appear brighter to the human eye, ranging from 0 (black) to 1 (white).

Contrast (White)

The difference in luminance between the color and pure white background. Higher contrast ratios mean better readability against white. Minimum recommended contrast is 4.5:1 for normal text.

Contrast (Black)

The difference in luminance between the color and pure black text or background. Higher contrast ratios mean better readability against black. Essential for ensuring text is legible on dark interfaces.

WCAG AA

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Level AA compliance. The minimum standard for web accessibility. Requires 4.5:1 contrast for normal text and 3:1 for large text (18pt+ or 14pt bold+).

WCAG AAA

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Level AAA compliance. The enhanced standard for web accessibility. Requires 7:1 contrast for normal text and 4.5:1 for large text. Recommended for highest accessibility.

Readability

How easily text in this color can be read against common backgrounds. Based on contrast ratios and human perception factors. Good readability is essential for user experience and accessibility compliance.
