Colour palette

Colour for Interiors autumn/winter 2009/10 is a season of extremes - from light to dark, natural to hi-tech, traditional to modern, and handmade to mass-produced.
Underpinning this approach to the season is a layer of atmospheric light. It lifts and surprises, enhancing colour tones across every palette.

For my internal book illustration I will only be using back and white or grayscale as colour is not required. However for the front cover book illustration for 'the Nerve' colour is required. For this I intend to use neutral colours with possibley pinks and blues.
