    New color aid for designers takes a different approach from the more scientific procedural based tools: group colors by the emotional tone they convey.

    I’m a bit skeptical how this will work out, as colors can contextually convey quite different emotions depending on the colors with which they are displayed.

    For instance, a dark blue color might be perceived as royal, trustworthy when paired with a rich gold, but perceived as watery and morose when paired with an olive green or dark purple.
