Neonväriset

Neonväriset refers to colors that are exceptionally bright and luminous, often appearing to glow. These colors are typically highly saturated and possess a fluorescent quality, meaning they reflect light at a longer wavelength than they absorb. This characteristic gives them their distinctive, eye-catching appearance, often associated with vibrant and energetic aesthetics.

The term "neonväriset" is derived from neon, a noble gas that emits a bright reddish-orange light when an electric current passes through it. While true neon gas produces a specific color, the term has broadened to encompass a range of intensely bright hues that mimic this luminous effect. These colors are not found naturally in the spectrum of most objects but are often created through artificial pigments or dyes.

Neon colors are commonly used in graphic design, fashion, and visual arts to create a striking impact. They can be employed to highlight important information, evoke a sense of modernity, or simply to add a playful and bold statement. Due to their high visibility, neon colors are also utilized in safety equipment, such as traffic cones and high-visibility clothing, to ensure that individuals are easily seen. The perception of neon colors can also be influenced by lighting conditions, appearing even more intense under ultraviolet light.
