Colorwize is an 183-page catalog which contains 1,510 color combinations. The collection features eleven sections: Singles, Red, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Green, Orange, Neutrals, Pastels, Groups, and Interplays. It starts with Singles, where I've selected colors that resonate with me, and are meant to open up your palate for the main course. Please note that, since there is no standardized code for each individual color, the CMYK values should be considered descriptive rather than precise. Next are the color sections Red, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Green, Orange, Neutrals, Pastels, where you will find combinations built around a central color, with two to five hues per palette. These main colors vary in tone. For example, within the Red section, you'll find cherry, burgundy, pink, fuchsia, and more. Some colors may appear in multiple sections. For instance, coral can be found under both Red and Orange. Pastels include pale, soft, ashy, candy-like tones. Groups presents more complex combinations — arrangements of 2, 3, and 4 single palettes gathered in an explosion of tints. Interplays is designed for those who are less experienced, offering guided examples to help you navigate this visual feast. This section provides a space for color experimentation during the creative process. Established palettes are deconstructed and reassembled to test harmony, balance, and spatial behaviour. By varying hue, saturation, and value in controlled ways, these studies explore how colors influence perception and composition. The aim is to expand both the functional and expressive potential of color in design.
