Sanzo Wada (1883-1967) was an artist, teacher, costume and kimono designer during a turbulent time in avant-garde Japanese art and cinema. Wada was ahead of his time in developing traditional and Western influenced colour combinations, helping to lay the foundations for contemporary colour research. Based on his original 6-volume work from the 1930s, this book offers 348 color combinations, as attractive and sensuous as the books own design.

Such a fun book!
I’ve been wanting to get this book ever since I saw someone talking about it months ago. It really makes you think about the way colors interact with each other and how to find fun color combinations in every day life such as in clothing or your home. The book was in great condition when in arrived and was exactly as described.

Came in on time and well boxed. This book is a fantastic asset to anyone who seeks to express their creativity, in fashion and in design, but has a problem with color matching. Beautifully presented in this book is exactly what you want, color profiles in a seemingly endless variety.

Lindo libro de teoría del color
Aunque es un libro pequeño en tamaño, contiene mucha información sobre los colores. A mi hija le encantó y lo usa para sus dibujos de acuarela, disfruta mucho el usarlo
