The NCS Atlas has one page for every hue in the NCS Colour circle, visualising all NCS Standard colours.
The binder contains non-removable colour samples that give a good overview of all NCS Standard Colours and allow you to navigate quickly between the different colour areas.
Thanks to the logic of the NCS System it is visually easy to identify and compare colours that are related to each other, based on NCS nuance such as blackness, whiteness, chromaticness and NCS lightness values.
NCS – Natural Colour System® is a scientifically based colour system that allows for accurate cross-industrial colour communication for designers and manufacturers, retailers and customers. Since NCS is based on how we perceive colour visually, the system allows you to describe colour on all imaginable surfaces. This has made the colour system a global standard for definition, quality assurance and communication of colour. All surface colours can be described with a NCS Notation.

Pages by Hue
The Atlas displays the NCS Color Wheel as well as one page for every hue. There are 40 NCS hues, including one page with neutrals and tinted grays, and 3 pages with tinted white colors.
Hue Nuances
For each hue there are “nuances” that result from different combinations of the hue’s blackness, chromaticness, and whiteness.
