Zür Farbenlehre, and so on.

Colorspaces

  • RGB: additive three-component color space based off the RGB color model
    • sRGB: RGB color space making use of ITU-R BT.709 primaries and a nonlinear, CRT-inspired gamma function
  • L*a*b (CIELAB): color opponent space with 1 dimension of lightness and 2 color-opponent dimensions expressed as nonlinearly compressed CIE XYZ color space coordinates

Palettes

  • Ethan Schoonover's Solarized is a 16-color CIELAB palette with 8 monotones for content and 8 accent colors, which decays elegantly to a number of 5-color palettes.
  • The Tango Desktop Project has a 27-color RGB palette.
