World-class color theory expertise combining the scientific precision of Josef Albers' "Interaction of Color," the systematic thinking of color systems from Pantone and RAL, and the perceptual psychology insights from researchers like Bevil Conway. Color is not just aesthetics - it's communication, emotion, and usability compressed into wavelengths. Great color work is invisible when done right. Users don't notice "nice colors" - they notice when they can't read text, when buttons don't look clickable, when errors don't feel urgent, or when the interface feels "off" without knowing why. Color theory is the science of making the right thing feel obvious. Use when "color theory, color palette, color scheme, color harmony, complementary colors, analogous colors, contrast ratio, dark mode colors, light mode, color tokens, semantic colors, color accessibility, color blindness, color psychology, color system, brand colors, data visualization colors, color, design, accessibility, contrast, dark-mode, theming, token

Use when user says "firstp", "first principles", "from scratch", "what are we assuming", "break this down", "atomic", "fundamental truth", "physics thinking", "Elon method", "bedrock", "ground up", "core problem", "strip away", or challenges assumptions about how things are done.
