title = "When Dullscreen is Too Dull",
abstract = "Dullscreen as an interface design concept suggests minimizing colors to avoid interface confusion and clutter. Dullscreen designs have been applied in several of the author{\textquoteright}s efforts to modernize legacy control rooms in nuclear power plants with digital upgrades. A study on system overviews revealed an unexpected finding. One set of screens followed a vendor{\textquoteright}s human-computer interface style guide, which featured a series of colorful elements on the screens. Another set of screens followed an in-house style guide that adhered to dullscreen principles. The discovery that the colorful elements were more visually salient, especially when seen across the control room, pointed to a need to reconsider strict adherence to dullscreen design principles.",
