Historical context
This palette is inspired by the tradition of Sanzo Wada's 1933
Dictionary of Color Combinations, which cataloged combinations
drawn from centuries of Japanese cultural life. The specific colors
here use traditional shikisai names that have been in the public
domain for generations.
