Tracy Holmes has taken her passion for color and created this ultimate color tool for teachers, students, designers, artists and color enthusiasts alike. This color tool elevates the traditionally used color wheel by separating the colors and placing them on large individual cards and then adding more colors and hues to the deck.
By placing colors on convenient handheld cards, it is easier to play with color combinations as well as find a desired shade. The massive deck of cards can be sorted into six smaller decks based on similar colors. On each card is a three digit code that reveals where that specific color sits within the entire collection.
In addition, Holmes designed a color cube to aid in the deciphering of color schemes. This allows users to not just see what color they are using, but it shows them where each particular color sits among the other shades, tints and hues.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Color Card Decks
- The rise of large individual color cards as a tool on which designers can find a desired shade and play with color combinations.
- Color Cube
- The introduction of color cubes alongside color card decks to aid in the deciphering of color schemes.
- Three-digit Code
- The adoption of three-digit codes that reveal where specific colors sit within an entire collection of color cards, making it easier for designers to experiment with color combinations.
Sectors Adopting This
- Art Supply
- Art supply manufacturers can develop large individual color card decks and color cubes that can be used to create new shades of paint or pencils.
- Product Design
- Product designers can use color card decks to quickly and easily experiment with different color combinations when designing new products.
- Graphic Design
- Graphic designers can use multi-functional color card decks that are sorted into specific color collections to match specific design requirements.
