Why read it?

1 author picked Interaction of Color as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Even though this book skews to the more academic side of color, I think it’s a must-read for anyone who wants to have a deeper understanding of color. I loved the deep dive into how color relies on visual perception which can vary from individual to individual or because of the colors surroundings influence.

This book helped me train my eye to understand color better and to have a deeper understanding that my version of a color and your version of the same color could be completely different.

From Rachel's list on live a colorful, vibrant life.
