With HDR and wide gamut on the horizon, things are moving even further away to ever requiring any form of dithering. Screenshot of “The Secret of Monkey Island” using 16 colors.įor a long time now, however, we have had 8 bits per channel per pixel, allowing each pixel on your screen to assume one of 16 million colors.

Now spend hours trying to find the right floppy disk with the drivers to get the “256 colors” or, gasp, “True Color” show up. You may remember running Windows 95 with 16 colors and playing games like “Monkey Island” on it. The fact that I have never seen a 3D game with dithering like this probably stems from the fact that color palettes are mostly a thing of the past.

Like in the picture, where you probably feel like there are multiple brightness levels when in fact there’s only two: Full brightness and black. Screenshot of “Return of the Obra Dinn”.ĭithering, so my original understanding, was a technique to place pixels using only a few colors from a palette in a clever way to trick your brain into seeing many colors. Apparently, this has been dubbed “Ditherpunk”, and I love that.

Obra Dinn is a story puzzler that I can only recommend, but what piqued my curiosity as a software engineer is that it is a 3D game (using the Unity game engine) but rendered using only 2 colors with dithering. I am late to the party, but I finally played “Return of the Obra Dinn”, the most recent game by Lucas Pope of “Papers Please” fame. This article may contain traces of nostalgia and none of Lena. The copper of the media console and the reddish tone of the tote bag may not immediately appear to form an express palette, but attention to small details like this give a room a cohesive and well-considered feel.I always loved the visual aesthetic of dithering but never knew how it’s done. Understated color – While the overall effect of the room can be monochromatic, there are still subtle ways that you can introduce color into a room like this. If you have hats, bags or baskets in these materials use them to accessorize to prevent the room from feeling cold or sterile. Natural materials – Woods, sisal, leather and straw are all textures and colors that work perfectly against a white backdrop. While choosing between 5 practically identical white paints can make you feel a little insane, the extra time spent will make a world of difference. Light – The unsung hero of the inspiration photo is actually the bright natural light that is flooding the room. Never underestimate the power of good lighting! Before committing to a white paint, make sure you observe how your options appear in the light of the room – both during the day and at night. Baskets and ottomans can work well for smaller, everyday items while a larger storage piece like this media console can hide wires and electronics. Everything that does not fit in will need to be stored away when not in use, so storage is key to making this work. Storage – The key to this look is stick to a strictly edited color palette.
