Plus the sixteen CSS1 colors which don't fit well on a color wheel (due to a small/overlapping set of hue and saturation values):

black  

silver  

gray  

white  

maroon  

red

I'm far from a designer, but I make web pages. For quite some time I've thought about the palette of "web colors". I'd like to be able to pick from those colors, when making simple web pages. (Rather thank picking from all possible colors.)

I've thought about this "color wheel" arrangement, i.e. when using image editors. It's a compact way to represent a whole range of colors. I was reminded of the combination of these things by a recent Hacker News comment thread.

So here it is: a color wheel, with only "web colors" on it. Each color is placed on the wheel, then grown to a polygon to fill the wheel with a Voronoi diagram. The arrangement of polygons, and their sizes, is intriguing.

Hover colors to see their name (and preview swatch and hex code). Click one to "lock" it.
