B03. Hue, Lightness and Chroma

Five connected studies move hue, lightness and chroma from direct observation and explanation through controlled experiment, application and critique. Five active studies connect evidence, experiment, application and critique.

Observe → Understand → Experiment → Apply → Critique and record

• Hue Families

  Begin Hue, Lightness and Chroma with hue families: observe directly and record the conditions before interpreting the result.

• Value and Lightness

  Within Hue, Lightness and Chroma, build a working explanation of value and lightness, keeping the model distinct from the appearance it describes.

• Chroma

  In Hue, Lightness and Chroma, test chroma by changing one controlled variable and comparing the evidence.

• Saturation versus Chroma

  Apply saturation versus chroma within Hue, Lightness and Chroma to a practical color decision, preserving both the reasoning and its constraints.

• Three-Dimensional Color Organization

  In Hue, Lightness and Chroma, critique three-dimensional color organization against evidence, exceptions and failure conditions before carrying it forward.
