For every face you can define colors for light and dark background:

background: The kind of background—either light or dark.
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp/html_node/Defining-Faces.html#Defining-
Faces

So there should be two color schemes: one for light and one for dark
background and emacs would use the first one for the default light 
background.
