What do all these colours mean?


Unsure what all the these pretty colours mean on Protein OS? Fear not, here is a quick breakdown of the new functionality and how it works. The original colour logic is based on the Chromo, which is colour/time system that matches a specific time to a colour within a single 24 hour period, as illustrated below:

The system used on Protein OS however extends this logic by assigning each of content channels with a colour and thereby providing a suggested time of day to view it. Make sense? No? OK, here's the rough breakdown of the Chromo® time window for each channel:


ECO between 01.30 and 08.30


SCIENCE between 08.30 and 09.30


TECH between 09.30 and 10.30


TRENDS between 10.30 and 13.30


DESIGN between 13.30 and 15.30


FASHION between 15.30 and 17.30


MUSIC between 17.30 and 19.30


FILM between 19.30 and 22.30


PLAY between 22.30 and 01:30
