225 colors. A selection for painters and conservationists, architects and designers
The use of color is a complex subject: influenced by standards, fashions and trends, we derive our ideas and concepts from color theories, intuition and personal preferences. Today's standard color fans and color description systems are based on purely quantitative principles and include far more than 1500 shades. How do we decide on a particular color?
After the successful sample book 128 Colors, Katrin Trautwein presents a new selection of 225 colors, which is the result of her many years of collaboration with architects, designers and conservationists. Each color is presented with a hand-painted original color sample; in addition to information on its composition and origin, its potential and significance in application are described.
Exclusive for kt.COLOR customers
Two supplementary color cards, each with 16 new color samples and corresponding color stories, are included. These collections - developed in 2021 and 2024 - specifically expand the range with shades that meet the current requirements for sustainable, architecturally suitable colors.
