A Dictionary of Color Combinations: Vol 2

This book is based on Sanzo Wada (1883-1967)'s books of colour combinations from the 1930s. He was an artist, teacher, costume and kimono designer during a turbulent time in avant-garde Japanese art and cinema. He helped to lay the foundations for contemporary colour research. 

This second volume presents 72 colour patterns themed on the Japanese seasons and another 165 drawn from early to mid-twentieth-century fashion, interior, and graphic design, making it an indispensable reference for designers, fashion and interior specialists, illustrators, photographers, writers, and indeed anyone engaged in creative work.
