About This Book

A concise, practical handbook that combines scientific principles and artistic practice to teach color to non-specialists. It addresses color vision and basic theories, explains qualities such as hue, value, and saturation, and explores contrasts, complements, and systems of harmony. Historical and natural palettes are analyzed, and numerous color plates illustrate combinations, proportions, and applied examples. Practical suggestions and appendices with definitions and references guide readers seeking to apply color knowledge in decoration, design, and everyday visual arrangement.
