Really cool project! I like the twelve color palette the author presents, and the grayscales, but I'd love to see more about the choice to use twelve bits to encode it. Presumably enough of the rest of the possibility space is needed to justify writing a custom encoding. Or maybe it was done because custom color encodings are cool, which they definitely are.
The palette is so pretty, I wonder how the whole LCH color space quantized down to 4096 colors looks. I find limited bitdepth color spaces fascinating to look at, there's so many choices about how to represent color they can look wildly different.
