Pattern And Palette Sourcebook

Synopsis

This hard-working reference book is an invaluable tool for art directors, designers and students working in the fashion, product and graphic design fields as well as anyone in the business of visual communication. Pattern and Palette Sourcebook is a desktop library of colours and patterns that addresses the professional's real-world needs in working with harmonies and contrasts. Divided into six unique style sections, the book provides readers with 15 appropriate colours for each section, which are then incorporated into 25 different patterns shown in six or eight colour variations each. This enables readers to see the dramatic effect colours have in design and helps them to understand how to use colour effectively. The book also demonstrates ways of creating designs that are distinctly unique from one another yet hold together in a group. This book is a must have for designers of all disciplines and experience levels.
