User Interface Colors

This past week I have been focusing on learning more about the color in user interface design. , User interface design deals with increasing the usability of an interface. When designing an , interface, a designer has to keep in mind how the user will interact with it, and how they , perceive the interface, due to this color becomes very important and has a very large impact on , the effectiveness of an interface. I learned more about the anatomy of the human eye, which , gave me insight into why some colors work better than others and why some colors , complement each other better than others. I also was able to learn about a few different models , that are used for choosing colors including RGB which is primarily used in electronics versus , CMYK which is primarily used in printers. I also learned about a few design guidelines that make , the best use of colors in an interface. Some of the guidelines made use of the insight gained , from the information from the human eye. For example, it is strongly discouraged to have two , high wavelength colors next to each other or overlaying on top of one another due to the , difficulty for the human eye to focus. Overall, this past week I learned a lot about the use of , color, and how to make it as effective as possible, I hope to be able to use this for my final , product.
