E.g., if you have to design signage in France, you'll probably have to use the AFNOR palette; if you have to produce print layouts for the Dutch government, you might be forced to use the Rijksoverheid palette etc. In other cases, you may decide to use a palette because an affordable good colour reference is available (e.g. Galaxy Gauge). In addition, we have added palettes produced by creative professionals who thought they could put into good use by other creatives. You don't need any guidance on the latter, because you have to decide yourself whether they suit your creative needs and your taste.

Part of what I had in mind is on this page [1] which I just happend to 
find in my bookmarks. Do you know what I mean? It's rather near to what 
I would like to have. And then I would add some kind of summary about 
the intention (facts) and look and feel (emotions) for each palette.
