Nicholas Rougeux — The Natural System of Colours
Colour wheel close-up
Nicholas Rougeux, data-artist and designer from the US Midwest has recreated the celebrated colour wheels of Mose Harris’ The Natural System of Colours first published in the late eighteenth century. Interested readers should consult Rougeux’s project page for details.
The wheels are in four variants: prismatic/compound, light/dark, and for each we create colour schemes along radii (at a selection of angles) and circularly (at a selection of radii).
- Prismatic light circular
- Prismatic light radial
- Prismatic dark circular
- Prismatic dark radial
- Compound light circular
- Compound light radial
- Compound dark circular
