The 1000 COLOURS Jigsaw Puzzle is a tangible iteration of the subtle and complicated elements of color gradients that are appreciated in both computer graphics and natural states.
Also known as a color ramp, gradient refers to the gradual transitioning from one hue to another. To represent this accurately, designer Clemens Habicht created this puzzle where each tile is an individual color that's hardly different to its neighbor. With a careful eye, the user must sort between various shades of orange, green and blue -- colors with differences that become obvious only after completion of the puzzle.
The puzzle set comes without a guide, making the construction process incredibly difficult. Created to challenge a design-oriented mind, this jigsaw puzzle is sure to encourage a deeper appreciation of the powerful and overlooked elements of colors.
