Palette Perfect: Color Combinations Inspired by Fashion, Art and Style

Color Collective’s Palette Perfect is both a practical guide and an inspirational book on the universe of colour combinations. Aimed to fashion students and designers, Palette Perfect is both a practical guide and an inspirational book that proposes a reflection on the universe of colour combinations, the moods and atmospheres they evoke and how we associate particular places and emotions to special colours. Each chapter explores a particular mood and describes the corresponding feelings and colour combinations, using as examples exquisite photographs of objects, still-lives, landscapes, interiors and fashion. At the end of each chapter, a wide variety of palettes representing the chapter’s particular mood or atmosphere is included. AUTHOR: Lauren Wager is a young graphic designer living in Columbus, Ohio.
