Quote from the Solarized color scheme website from Ethan:
"Solarized is a sixteen color palette (eight monotones, eight accent colors) designed for use with terminal and gui applications. It has several [unique properties](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized#features). I designed this colorscheme with both precise [CIELAB](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lab_color_space) lightness relationships and a refined set of hues based on fixed color wheel relationships. It has been tested extensively in real world use on color calibrated displays (as well as uncalibrated/intentionally miscalibrated displays) and in a variety of lighting conditions."
