Colour

Let's explore the colors of various types of art with our color wheel. Click the color to get inspiration and then move the horizontal slider to change the color

A monochrome color scheme (full color blindness, please do not confuse monochrome) uses multiple shades of one color instead of a variety of different colors. This effectively reduces frustration related to color, so it is a good way to include contrast in the design. Black and white color scheme is not necessarily black and white, you can use various blue colors to make it look easy to see. There are lots of free tools that mimicked the effects of color blindness and color blind people let you know how to guarantee that your user interface will function as you expect. Photoshop has its own (slightly hidden) calibration setting function, just look at the viewing settings, then you can choose presbyopia and emphasis. When the test is completed, please return to monitor RGB.

There are many types of color blind with varying degrees of severity. People with color blindness can only see black and white, this is a universal myth. This may be true, but monochromaticity (also known as full-color blindness) is extremely rare, with an estimated 33,000 affected. This severe visual impairment only allows individuals to see in grayscale. The important element to keep in mind is that it is not too difficult for most of those with color vision distinction to distinguish different colors, which will explain the difference in brightness level between hue and similar color.

The most important lesson to learn here is that you should not only use colors to represent important things unless you are absolutely sure that people with color vision can discern your choice of colors is. Whenever possible, please use icons, text, graphics, textures, other visual cues and colors when telling the user about the information. There are many ways to test accessibility, but these tools are not always completely accurate. The best way to finally see if the design is correct is to perform a true user experience audit. You may know that someone is color blind, why will not they reconsider your design? You may be able to bring them to our UX lab for actual user testing.
