About this book

The Elements of Color condenses Johannes Itten's larger work, The Art of Color, into a short volume on how color behaves and how it is felt. The book covers the subjective side of color experience alongside the objective principles behind it, in detail. Itten's twelve-part color circle and seven color contrasts anchor the material, which runs from color physics through mixing, harmony and composition.
