@stephaniewalter@front-end.social Interesting work, it seems great for games and usages where the combinations/mixing is important. For cases where colours are category differentiators and it doesn’t matter that green=yellow+blue, I’d feel that the symbols end up looking very similar and easy to mix up, while entirely different symbols (star, square, cross, etc) would make the categories much more distinctive?
Edit: I can see how it also works well as a mnemonic in cases you’d call the categories “green”, etc.

@nclm@mastodon.social yah I imagine this more for board games where you have the same little wooden squares on a map and the difference is just color.
