Great book for color lovers

A must see color book!







Kelvin: Color Today
This clever book is complete with a sense of humor as well as a savvy address index that is every minimalists dream in today's Information Age. Using color psychology and theory, each chapter discusses the hierarchy of symbols, trends, visual codes, contemporary culture, and the dissection of materials in their contexts. Kelvin investigates the depths of color perception from A to Z in everything from color blindness to digitized color editing. Launched from the scientific approach to measuring the temperature of color sans intellectual speculation, the 11 chapters of Kelvin: Colour Today are organized by a basic, but sequential, spectrum of colorful pages. It is a compilation of images derived from all over the modern world with commentary in which the editors specify that each example has one thing in common: it's "uniquely effective use of colour".
