The second volume by best-selling author Lauren Wager features a fresh new approach to colour combinations with entirely new palettes, organized by season.
What colour is summer? Is it cool and translucent swimming pool aquamarine, dazzling red like watermelon flesh, or the pale pink interior of a seashell? If these colours define summer, what colour is autumn? How about winter? And spring? In Palette Perfect, vol 2, designer, best-selling author and content creator Lauren Wager explores the multiple possibilities of seasonal colour applications, leading the reader through an inspirational presentation of image pairings and colour combinations.
This volume -- both a practical guide and inspirational book for designers, illustrators, architects, and crafters, as well as non-professionals, home decoration and fashion lovers -- provides examples of well-thought-out colour application within the worlds of contemporary art, fashion, interiors, photography and graphic design. It is a carefully gathered collection of colour palettes and stunning images with a touch of the unexpected, utterly successful in its aim.
This book demonstrates the value of observation and how the practice of seeking beauty can lead to fruitful creation and inspiration.
