Passionate graphic designers unshyly seeking to take
their art to a higher level could do no better than to assign
their colour swatch book to the bottom draw with an overarm
thud. It is what everyone else uses, so no individuality can
be found within its worn covers.
The high spontaneity of corporate image colour choices
can come from the most unlikely of sources. In this case the
colour model is from the old 1953 illustration by George Pye,
used to accompany a lengthy article by Dudley Noble.
No swatch preprescribed choices are found, the colours
are defined by the watercolours brushed on, the paper used,
and the gentle aging process acting on both. The colours are
sampled here and placed in boxes for your application colour
picker are the wet reflections in the bare aluminium panels.
A subtle pallet with blends of yellows, greens, blues, and
oily washes of oily grey progressively darkened by laps of
spent oil, and rubber.
The magnificent car featured is the famous pre-war racing
3 litre, 12 cylinder Mercedes Benz No18, rounding a wet bend
at high speed. Download colour model.
If you do not have the time
to read this page, the printed
bottom line is this, to give our
clients a leg up to higher quality
designs we feature here an old
colour model from George Pye.
