HOW THE COLOURS ARE ARRANGED
People generally start with the hue when looking for a colour “Am I looking for a lime green, a yellow or orange?”
• The NCS Index 2050 offers therefore a hue-based sorting, following the NCS Colour Circle, to allow navigation among the 2050 colours quick and easy.
• Within each hue-section (piece of the pie) the colours are arranged by nuance, following the NCS Colour Triangle.
• The nuances go from low chromaticness to high chromaticness (from pale to strong).
• In the flow from top to bottom, the colours are sorted by increasing blackness.
• White and pure colours are positioned at the top and deeper shades at the bottom.
NEUTRAL GREYSCALE
For low chromatic colours, people generally change the principle by which they search for a specific colour. For whitish and greyish colours, the nuance of the colour is much more significant than the hue. Therefore, all low chromatic colours are sorted by nuance and can be found in the first section of the NCS Index 2050.
