The Atlas of Color is your road map to all of color space and it fits in your back pocket. Affordable, portable, and reliable, this swatchbook with accompanying booklet is an essential reference for any designer or artist. More than 1,750 colors are sorted by the three traits that Albert Munsell identified as making up 3D color space: hue, value, and chroma. Talking about color has always been notoriously abstract: what exactly is viridian, for instance? The Atlas of Color enables users to say exactly what they mean: "a blue green of medium value and medium chroma," or even refer to a specific swatch by its corresponding Munsell color system reference. Each color on the swatchbook has full bleed-off so that you can compare your work directly against the swatch. LAB and RGB tags are also present, enabling users to take a color from the swatchbook into their digital design.

The accompanying booklet explains the origins and basis of the Munsell color system and how to use the swatchbook. Readers will learn about and test their understanding of hue, value, and chroma. Chapters specific to design disciplines explain how to apply this knowledge in your own field.

Marie Meyer is an independent color analyst based in Arizona, USA.
