Synopsis

An exploration into the relationship every person has with color, from inspiring creative choices in wardrobes, homes, and lives, to the power color has to completely transform your mood

Color is intrinsically linked to how individuals make sense of the world. It has the power to completely transform mood, often subliminally. It's capable of being energetic or restful, passive or aggressive, harmonious or dull, and that's just the beginning. Explore the implications, history, and cultural meanings of color. With chapters on individual colors, their history, and their influence, this book will inspire you to make creative choices. Chapters are broken up by color, and interspersed by reminders for every day living. It also includes a section of tear out swatches arranged in color families, and a pocket for readers to collect their own colors. Lyrically written and thoughtfully illustrated with photography by Victoria Alexander, Colour is interspersed with poignant reminders on how to use color to transform your mood and brighten your life. Includes a bright orange journal-style elastic band.
