Book excerpt: Most of today’s books on color lean in one of two directions: toward heavy-handed theory-speak or toward ready-to-use palettes that will likely be out-of-step before the book has received its first coffee stain. Color For Designers leans in neither direction, instead choosing to simply tell it like it is while bringing home the timeless thinking behind effective color selection and palette building. In this fundamental guide to understanding and working with color, bestselling author Jim Krause starts out by explaining the basics with an introduction to the color wheel, hue, saturation, value, and more. He then dives deeper into the practical application of color with instruction on how to alter hues, create palettes, target themes, paint with color, use digital color, and accurately output your colorful creations to print. The book is set up in easy-to-digest spreads that are straight-to-the-point, fun to read, and delightfully visual. Color For Designers–releasing on the heels of its companion volume, Visual Design–is the second book in the New Riders Creative Core series, which aims to provide instruction on the fundamental concepts and techniques that all designers must master to become skilled professionals.

Download or read book Color Graphics written by Karen Triedman and published by Rockport Pub. This book was released on 2004 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colour is one of the most effective and least expensive ways to convey a message or get a viewer's attention. Colour communicates instantly. Even before the viewer has read and understood the text, the colour scheme has conveyed something on a subconscious level. Colour has become an instant message. Color Graphics explores this phenomenon through stunning work from top international designers and examines how their use of colour has made these designs powerful and memorable. Whether its colours are bold, subtle or missing entirely, each piece is briefly examined and includes comments from the designers about the key role colour plays in their work. Additional insight comes from leading colour expert Leatrice Eiseman, who addresses topics such as where colour forecasts come from, consumers' reactions to specific colours and the role colour plays in design for children.
Download or read book 2 Color Graphics written by Templin Brink Design and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-Color Graphics is the latest installment in Rockport's series that includes Minimal Graphics, Touch Graphics, Large Graphics, Small Graphics, and Color Graphics. Two-color graphics offer a range of effects from somber and elegant to edgy and bold. More importantly, they're inexpensive to print, which perhaps explains why two-color printing is so widely used. Despite its popularity, however, two-color printing has a stigma of looking cheap compared to four-color pieces. This book puts that myth to rest by showing how dynamic effects can be achieved with simple, inexpensive two-color printing. Besides its simplicity, it has a style all its own, which can convey sophistication, elegance, and integrity. Included is a "color finder" section designed to show readers a variety of color combinations for various projects. Each featured project is also shown in thumbnail size in 15 to 20 different two-color combinations.
