The mystery of color: inherent color, environmental color and light source color.

The mystery of color lies in its formation principle. In fact, the formation of color has three elements: inherent color, environmental color and light source color. This paper will discuss these three elements in depth to help you better understand the formation principle of color.

Inherent color

Intrinsic color refers to the color of the object itself. Different objects have different inherent colors, which are determined by their chemical composition and structure.

Environmental color

Ambient color refers to the influence of the surrounding environment on the color of objects. Light, color, reflection and other environmental factors will have an impact on the color of the object.

Light source color

The color of light source refers to the change of object color by light. Different light sources will have different effects on the color of objects, which is why we see different colors at different times or under different conditions.

Color change of paint

When painting beige paint, under the combined action of light and environment, it may present different color effects, and sometimes even bring a touch of cyan. This is why we see different colors at different times or under different conditions.
