The following chart illustrates how lighting conditions can vary. 

When judging colour, it is necessary first to have good and consistent lighting conditions, as provided by our whole range of lighting equipment. Also, it is important to use the type of lighting that the colour will normally be viewed in, and to look under more than one light source in case there are metameric effects.  The Agile Radiant™ Colour Viewing Cabinets have several light sources precisely for these reasons.
