It is a fact that in order to see the color of things humans depend on the light,
which is composed of electromagnetic waves ranging from radio waves to
gamma rays up to. Man alone has the ability to see a very small part of the
spectrum which corresponds to the color range, this could prove it with
experiments ISAAC NEWTON, by passing a beam of white light from the sun
through a prism note that this was broken down into a range of colors the same
as observed in the rainbow and each color was unique and that all these colors
alconcentrar again in a prism is recomposed in a beam of white light. With these
observations as we realize that thanks to the light and the ownership of the
materials, we can see colors in objects because when the light hits this material
breaks down and wave at x reflects a certain color which sees our vision.

consultants, designers and fashion industry, etc.., Are well aware of it, and use
colors consistently to associate the type of product you want to get .
Clarity is also an important guideline for using color. Experiments have shown
that the search time to find a piece of information is diminished if the color of
this piece is known in advance, and if the color is applied only to that part.
Standardized interface colors should be established and used throughout the
development. The clear, concise use of color can help users to find pieces of
information faster and more efficiently. Learning can be greatly increased with
the color. The color has proven to be superior to white and black for the
effectiveness of information processing time and memory performance. The
aesthetics and attractiveness of the interface are inherently increased by the
use of color.
