The Color Trio: Play with Red Yellow & Blue
Red, yellow and blue, known as the ‘three primary colours’, are the most fundamental elements of the colour wheel, as well as some of the most classic colours, offering lasting visual appeal. From De Stijl to the Bauhaus and into the present day, masterpieces in red, yellow and blue across art and design have proved to be remarkably enduring.
The book aims to convey the idea that ‘even the most rudimentary colours can generate great inspiration’. It offers an accessible and engaging illustrated introduction to the refinement and use of these colours throughout history, presents high-quality works dominated by red, yellow or blue across fields including posters, photography, packaging and branding, and features commentary from contemporary artists and designers on their colour choices. We hope this book will inspire readers to explore the creative potential of these three colours.
