Colors are so universally used that every designer should consider when designing. They are so important that they to some degree decide the overall design. This book introduces two systems of printing colors--CMYK and PMS--in a plain way, explaining how they are produced and the principles behind them with texts and illustrations. Meanwhile, it showcases a substantial selection of projects for reader's well-rounded understanding of printing colors and their functions.

Two-Color Graphics is the latest installment in Rockport's series that includes Minimal Graphics, Touch Graphics, Large Graphics, Small Graphics, and Color Graphics. Two-color graphics offer a range of effects from somber and elegant to edgy and bold. More importantly, they're inexpensive to print, which perhaps explains why two-color printing is so widely used. Despite its popularity, however, two-color printing has a stigma of looking cheap compared to four-color pieces. This book puts that myth to rest by showing how dynamic effects can be achieved with simple, inexpensive two-color printing. Besides its simplicity, it has a style all its own, which can convey sophistication, elegance, and integrity. Included is a "color finder" section designed to show readers a variety of color combinations for various projects. Each featured project is also shown in thumbnail size in 15 to 20 different two-color combinations.

Colour is one of the most effective and least expensive ways to convey a message or get a viewer's attention. Colour communicates instantly. Even before the viewer has read and understood the text, the colour scheme has conveyed something on a subconscious level. Colour has become an instant message. Color Graphics explores this phenomenon through stunning work from top international designers and examines how their use of colour has made these designs powerful and memorable. Whether its colours are bold, subtle or missing entirely, each piece is briefly examined and includes comments from the designers about the key role colour plays in their work. Additional insight comes from leading colour expert Leatrice Eiseman, who addresses topics such as where colour forecasts come from, consumers' reactions to specific colours and the role colour plays in design for children.
