Color Harmony: Layout incl. CD-Rom

This essential handbook opens with case studies of 10 featured designs. Each study explains what the work was trying to achieve and why the particular palette was chosen.

The book then follows with 21 chapters, headed by adjectives such as elegant, professional, or classic, that feature the palettes which best reflect the adjective.

The chapters also include the 10 designated layout designs in 4 different color combinations from that palette.

The result: more than 800 color studies illustrating how varying color combinations can alter a given design and the message it communicates.

Color Harmony: Layout is an insightful demonstration of the power of color and its ability to convey a message.

The book includes an interactive CD that allows users to choose layouts from the book, experiment with colors and print them for reference.
