Three things are required to realize color: Light, The Eyes and An Object. Without light, there is no color. Without controlled light, color can, and will, appear different.

A metameric effect is where two different colors will appear the same under certain lighting conditions. Having a controlled environment helps identify these troublesome effects.

That's why you should consider a PANTONE Color Viewing Light.
Take the guesswork out of color matching with the help of three different lighting environments. See how colors will look under daylight, fluorescent and incandescent settings.
