There will be people out there who will find this one useful. The word guide is pretty strong and whilst this may be a little harsh on the author, the offering is more about one man’s observation of colors that he would like to use one day, rather than a mentor’s wisdom.

You may prefer its sister publication, A Designer’s Guide to Global Color Combinations which introduces the cultural significance of colors in differing countries.

If you are seeking a more approachable tome on color theory, I heartily recommend Colour: How to Use Colour in Art and Design. People may enjoy The Designer’s Guide, but be prepared for the hard sell on Art Deco – with which the author appears to have a personal affinity.
