A Dictionary Of Color Combinations Details

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.

Reviews

I don't read Japanese so maybe color codes are included.This size of the book makes it difficult to use as a reference. Not much bigger than a packet of cigarettes. This makes it hard to hold open to a given page, especially if you were able to write down color combination, which, basically, you can not. Which brings me to my 2nd gripe.There are no color model codes to use when mixing paints or specifying Photoshop colors. No CYMK, no RGB, not even Pantone.From a practical perspective, this book is no more than an attractive curiosity.
