Block 2050

The NCS Block 2050 has one fan block for every hue representing all NCS Standard colours.

The nine blocks offer easy to fan out colour samples sized for good colour judgement and edge-to-edge colour comparisons. The NCS Block hue contains the full range of NCS 2050 Standard colours and is used to advantage when combining colours that match in hue or work in contrast.

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.
