A Dictionary of Color Schemes - Color Notes from the Taisho and Showa Eras | SEIGENSHA | Designed and Made in Japan

In the Taisho and early Showa periods, when the concept of "color schemes" was not widely recognized, Sanzo Wada was one of the first to recognize the importance of color and compiled "The Complete Guide to Color Schemes" (6 volumes, 1933-). This work can be considered a pioneer of color culture in Japan, and was a groundbreaking "color sample book" that showed concrete color scheme patterns. This book is a newly revised and reprinted version of the masterpiece "The Complete Guide to Color Schemes." The color schemes included are not only from the Taisho and Showa periods, but also reflect a universal sensibility that can be used even today.
