A practitioner´s guide to designing colour schemes

Colour Choices is a practical duide to colour selection and design for architects, designers, students and others who want to learn more about how to create a positive environment. It provides a broad, deep understanding of the different ways we can make colour choices in the design of our surroundings and a world rich in symbols in the form of signage, information boards, data screen readability and websites.
