Color filters based on distributed Bragg reflectors, consisting of alternating thin‐film layers of different refractive indices, can modify the appearance of standard silicon modules. This approach is also extended to optimize the color appearance of emerging PV technologies such as perovskite solar cells, which typically exhibit a less appealing gray–brownish appearance. In this contribution, perovskite solar‐cell stacks combined with MorphoColor color filters are presented. Angular‐resolved reflectance simulations based on wave optics and ray tracing with experimental data are validated, and the color appearance from various viewing angles is evaluated. Additionally, the impact of individual layers on color appearance and the maximum achievable short‐circuit current density in the perovskite solar cell is investigated. By applying Bayesian optimization, the color distance is minimized to the targeted appearance. Tailoring the bridging layers between the color filter and the perovskite solar cell is found to strongly influence the color impression due to the coherently combined color filter and perovskite solar cell. The presented color optimization concept allows to customize the aesthetics of emerging PV thin‐film technologies such as perovskite solar cells.
