A rich resource for all designers and artists looking for inspiration and guidance on colour combinations. A huge range of combinations is provided, with full readings for both CMYK (for designers working in print) and RGB (for Web-based and other multi-media designers). As an accomplished colour theorist, the author looks at colour combinations through various elements of colour theory, from hues, values and chroma to working with concepts such as simultaneous contrast and perceptual transparency. The author has also generated an inspirational series of colour palettes taken from photographs of the world around us, depicting landscapes, urban subjects and everyday objects. The book also contains a selection of work from cutting-edge designers and artists who explain the use of colour in their work and offer exciting new palettes. The colour combinations are rendered as two- and three-colour graphics, stripe studies and more unstructured and complex compositions, all of which showcase the huge variety of effects that can be achieved with colour. This fascinating book reveals the true magic of colour and is an essential reference book for any designer and artist.

Non passa settimana senza che sui giornali italiani, e stranieri, compaia un disegno di Saul Steinberg, così che gran parte dei lettori conoscono perfettamente il suo lavoro ma quasi mai il suo nome. Steinberg è un illustratore, uno dei più grandi, e tuttavia vige la convinzione che un illustratore sia meno di un artista: un artista incompiuto. Se poi il disegnatore lavora per quotidiani o riviste, il suo lavoro non è troppo considerato: vive sui margini dell'arte. Il nome di Saul Steinberg non figura in nessuna storia dell'arte. Questo numero di "Riga" vuole colmare dunque una eclatante lacuna, proponendo di leggere l'opera di Steinberg all'interno della storia dell'arte del Novecento, alla stregua di un suo significativo capitolo.
