Original CMY Cube
The Original CMY Cube is an innovative colour mixing and educational tool designed to demonstrate the principles of colour theory using the subtractive colour model. This cube is constructed from transparent coloured panels of cyan, magenta, and yellow, which are the primary colours in the subtractive colour model. When light passes through the different panels, the cube visually demonstrates how these primary colours mix to create secondary colours: red, green, and blue, as well as black when all three colours overlap.
The CMY Cube is a tangible way to explore and understand the interactions of colours in various lighting conditions and angles. It’s popular in both educational settings and among artists and designers for its ability to clearly illustrate the principles of subtractive colour mixing, offering a hands-on experience that enhances the learning of colour dynamics.
