A DICTIONARY OF COLOR COMBINATIONS

At Wonderkin, colour is one of our favourite ways to think, feel, and create.
It can shift energy, spark ideas, and open your eyes to new possibilities — sometimes with just one surprising combination.

This book is a classic for a reason.
It shows how colours can talk to each other, balance each other, and change the way you see the world.

That’s why this book belongs right here — and maybe with you, or with someone who needs fresh inspiration and a new way of looking at colour.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Sanzo Wada (1883-1967) was an artist, teacher, costume and kimono designer during a turbulent time in avant-garde Japanese art and cinema. Wada was ahead of his time in developing traditional and Western influenced colour combinations, helping to lay the foundations for contemporary colour research. Based on his original 6-volume work from the 1930s, this book offers 348 color combinations, as attractive and sensuous as the books own design.
