Features: Unique multi-base color complete chromatic scale, making color selection more accurate and convenient. Whether you are a professional graphic designer or a teacher or student engaged in teaching graphic composition and color composition, when you see this "Design Color Standard Atlas," you will inevitably ask: What makes it unique? There is! In addition to the general chromatic scale based on yellow (where the proportion of yellow on each page is fixed) and arranged in increasing order, this "Design Color Standard Atlas" also includes content based on red and blue as the base, arranged in increasing order. This new arrangement is adopted because, based on years of design and teaching experience, we have found that due to the general chromatic scale being based solely on yellow, selecting colors requires comparing the effects of adding or reducing yellow, which necessitates flipping back and forth through the chromatic scale, causing great inconvenience. With content based on red or blue, you can find the effects of different proportions of yellow addition or reduction on the same page, and similarly, you can see the effects of different proportions of red or blue addition or reduction. It's like looking up a dictionary: if you can only search by stroke, it feels inconvenient, but you can also search by radical or pinyin, which naturally feels much more convenient. In summary, the comprehensiveness of the colors illustrated in this book and the uniqueness of its arrangement form will surely make the user feel at ease.
