digital.colors
The objective is the carpet
and not the screen. Working on digital carpet design you should first decide
either for natural dyed hand spun wool or fast dyed machine spun wool. With
eye-dropper-tool
you
can pick in your graphic program the colors from any of our digital palettes
and you may use up to 48 colors in one design but usually carpets do not
have more than 5 to 16 colors because many colors increase the labor and
production costs and the beauty of carpet
benefits
only in rare cases. Screen colors are defined with RGB codes and you can
with any graphic-program use our rgb-palettes, which resemble as much as
possible the original wool-shades or you may change the rgb - codes
according to the needs within your design. However wool and screen are
different media and may be that colors of the wool do not always appear
exactly the same as on screen especially when natural dye are used. If you
want to use other colors as in our standard palettes available, you have to
produce and send samples and we dye the wool accordingly. Too small
differences in screen-colors may be visible on the screen but may become
almost non visible in the carpet; therefore it is advisable to keep
sufficient color-contrast. Please note that natural wool cannot be dyed into
extremely bright colors like it is done with cotton or synthetic fibers and
once the wool is knotted it appears generally a little darker than loose
wool.
