Welcome to our online resource about a fundamental aspect of digital color design, the RGB/CMY Color Wheel. The content of this site was created for artists, designers, educators and visual learners.
In this website/blog, as we update our content, you will find information about digital color technology and color design education. We will take a close look at the RGB|CMY Digital Color Wheel and the RGB color model. We are building a useful resource for educators and aspiring colorists. We will also cover methodological aspects of color coordination and communication. Below is an ambitious overview of what we envision that this web project will become.

RGB|CMY Digital Color Atlas
RGB / Red, Green and Blue
CMY / Cyan, Magenta and Yellow
Digital / using or characterized by computer technology
Color / a visual phenomenon described in this atlas as Hue, Brightness and Saturation.
Atlas / a collection of related charts, maps, illustrations, tables, diagrams and textual information
1. The interface of artistic and scientific methods of describing digitally produced color for new media.
2. A visual system of digital color based on the RGB|CMY Digital Color Methodology
3. An online resource comprised of informational graphics, diagrams, videos and illustrations, that topologically describe digital color relationships of the RGB color model.
4. A reference tool for designing color palettes for digital media.
5. A teaching and learning tool.
