Color Index - Revised Edition

Great book

I find this book a useful starting point for choosing a colour scheme, and I do use it quite a bit. But I can't help thinking it would be better as a download , as it would be easier to sort through what I wanted . For example if I want a scheme involving yellow, I have to literally look through the whole book because they're not grouped by colour. Whereas if it was a software I could just type yellow and it would pull them all out. Also would be good to have more detailed info about what certain schemes communicate. A useful reference but nothing more, and can be frustrating

Attractively presented with plenty of colour inspiration and information for beginner and advanced designer alike. Ideal size for carrying too.

As a marketer for a nonprofit, I purchased this book to help build consensus with our new logo and identity pieces. Staff was able to look through the book, see many variations, and determine what color schemes they liked. It was easy for me to explain the idea of an ancillary color palette. It was also extremely helpful in buidling my branding and identity manual. Well worth the money.

Ce livre est une mine d'inspirations et d'idées quant au choix des compositions de couleurs entre elles. Un belle mise en pratique de la théorie des couleurs. De plus, les codes RGB et CMJN sont extrêmement utiles pour qui veut travailler sur ordinateur. Un incontournable absolu !

This book was referred to me by a colleague. The first surprise was that the book is only 5" x 6". But on the same hand--it's nice that the book can be out and not take over my entire desk. So, the color samples are small but good enough and plenty. The addition of pattern and graphic samples within the color scheme are awesome and would help even the most imaginative minded artist. These are spelled out in RGB and CMYK. Overall, this book will help me make color decisions quicker and push me to choose outside the box.

La bible des couleurs pour le graphiste. Parfait et livré en avance.
