The purpose of this study is to establish a perceived warmth map of the Munsell colors in terms of the combinations of hue, lightness and chroma attributions. The digital Munsell color charts are displayed on an Adobe RGB monitor as the test samples. Besides, the colors of ‘5G’ hue with varied lightness are regarded as the reference colors to evaluate the cool/warm degrees of the other chromatic samples with the equal lightness. The categorical judgment method is utilized to produce the score data. Finally, a perceived cool/warm contour map of Munsell color system were established.
