Explore the Geometry of Color

Rotate the 3D shape of each color space. Watch interpolation paths carve through their volumes. See how different spaces shape perception.

Shape of Color

Each color model sculpts sRGB into a unique 3D form. Drag to rotate, scroll to zoom. The 2D slice tracks the fixed axis.

The Path Between Colors

The gradient strips show the 2D result. Below, 3D viewers reveal the actual path each method takes through the gamut.

Steps:

3D Path Visualization

Ghosted surface shows the sRGB gamut. Bright lines are interpolation paths. Dashed = sRGB reference.


Morphing Between Worlds

Rainbow sweeps through each color space, showing how they distribute hues and brightness.


Losing Color, Keeping Meaning

Different formulas for extracting luminance. Perceptually uniform spaces better preserve apparent brightness.
