Color Library by Emily King,Shirana Shahbazi,Maximage Pdf
"A collectible volume for graphic designers and creative entrepreneurs, this book is dedicated to "Color Library," one of the most discussed projects in the field of graphic design of the last few years. An investigation into color reproduction and printing, "Color Library" is a tool for artists, designers, photographers, and printers. It aims to widen the possibilities of color printing, and reflects on our contemporary perception of color as it is shaped by the recent developments in print production. Primarily conceived as a digital platform, "Color Library" offers a variety of colorimetric profiles automatically applicable to images, based on color combinations generated according to their perceptual, technical, and conceptual relevance. It not only offers an alternative to standard color printing, but also affirms a distinctive vision of how to print colors and process them" (Verlagshomepage).
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.
The Best of 1-color + 2-color Graphics by Chen Design Associates,Templin Brink Design Pdf
Explores ways to stretch a budget by using limited colors without compromising style. Graphic design using limited or single colors not only offers a less expensive alternative to costly four and five color printing but also offers a range of bold effects from somber and elegant to edgy and bold. As the saying goes, less is more, and the work that is showcased in these pages clearly illustrates the truth and merit in this saying. One-color and two-color printing, although more common than four-color printing, often carries with it a stigma of looking cheap compared to four-color pieces. This book puts that myth to rest by showing how truly dynamic effects can be achieved with simple, inexpensive one- and two-color design and 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 such as logos, packaging, book jackets, and posters. Each featured project is shown in thumbnail size in 15 to 20 different single or two-color combinations.

Color in Graphic Design by Daniela Queiroz,Lucas Almeida Pdf
Color is an essential factor in design, considering that it has a significant impact on the performance of the brand's communication, marketing, and sales. The color should not be chosen just because we like it or because we think it looks good since these are subjective values. There must be research on their meanings and associations, always remembering that they depend on cultural perceptions and that it is, therefore, important to know the audience we are working for. We often face the situation of not knowing which colors to choose for each of our designs due to the lack of knowledge about color theory and psychology. Unfortunately, the internet is full of inaccurate information. Still, in this e-book, we have addressed these topics correctly, so the color selection process for each of your projects become an easy task.
