Harald Arnkil Colours In The Visual World

Colours are all around us and they affect our daily lives, but what exactly are they and what is their function? A closer look at colours raises many questions: Can colour be measured? How does changing illumination affect the perception of colours? Do colours affect our emotions? This publication provides answers to these and other questions. It is a resource of colour facts and phenomena for students of art, design, and architecture, as well as all those interested in the world of colour.
