Traditional Japanese Colors - CSV
Traditional Japanese colors are a naming system rooted in nature and daily life culture, derived from names of plants, animals, minerals, and foods. The DIC Color Guide 'Traditional Colors of Japan' systematizes 300 colors, which are widely used in kimonos, crafts, architecture, and graphic design. The color names include many beautiful expressions of nature throughout the seasons, such as 'Moegi' (budding onion green), 'Ruri' (lapis lazuli blue), 'Akane' (madder red), 'Konpeki' (azure), and 'Yamabuki' (golden yellow).
