A Dictionary Of Color Combinations vol. 1 - Sanzo Wada

Sanzo Wada was a visionary Japanese painter, fashion, and costume designer who conducted an extensive study of color in the 1930s. Decades ahead of his time, he explored both Western and Japanese color palettes, which he compiled into a six-volume work titled The Complete Collection of Color Combinations (Haishoku Soukan)

This book is a collection of 348 color combinations originated by Sanzo Wada (1883–1967) who, in that time of increasingly avant-garde and diversified use of color, was quick to focus on the importance of color and laid the foundation for contemporary color research. 

Though the book is small in size with it's 10x16cm, this book is indispensable for anyone working with color.
