Purpose
Our articles are intended to help readers make and test a design decision. Pages should offer an applicable method, relevant limitations and clear examples rather than exist solely to attract search traffic.
Human review
Guides are written or substantively edited by Art and the City. Automatically generated material is not published as editorial guidance without human review. We check terminology, practical usefulness and the distinction between inspiration and verified accessibility.
Independence
Color recommendations are not paid placements. Advertising, when present, does not determine our conclusions. Links to Art and the City and related creative tools are part of the project network.
Corrections and updates
We review pages when standards, tools or the site change. Clear errors are corrected as soon as practical. Readers can report issues through the Art and the City contact page and should identify the relevant URL.
Limits
The palette tool is not a substitute for accessibility testing, user research, print proofs or professional advice. Users should verify final combinations in the real product and medium.
