1,500 Plus Color Palettes for Designers, Artists, Architects, Makers, and Educators
September 1, 2020
Sutton (The Making of Markova: Diaghilev's Baby Ballerina to Groundbreaking Icon), an industry color consultant in fashion, marketing, and color psychology, distills her years of experience in choosing exactly the right shade for the occasion into a handy pocket guide derived from her earlier work titled Complete Color Harmony. Beginning with the basics of the color wheel, Sutton covers everything from introductory color theory and the psychology of various colors to color trend forecasting. The bulk of the book is dedicated to more than 1,500 color palettes derived from the twelve segments of the color wheel, which can then become the inspiration for the user's own colorful projects. VERDICT This helpful guide not only offers a concise introduction to the theory of colors but will also prove valuable to advertisers, architects, interior designers, artists, and others planning their next project.--John Charles, formerly of Scottsdale P.L., AZ
