title: Using color to design effective projected transparencies.
abstract: In the design of projected transparencies, aesthetics usually govern color selection. However, the perceptual consequences of color use should be considered as well. Studies on the effects of color on visual perception and attention to them in the psychological literature are reviewed. The findings are discussed and applied to the problem of selecting color for projected transparencies.
