welcome
Welcome to Colour: Design & Creativity - the new online journal from the Society of Dyers and Colourists (SDC), for the professional and academic colour and design community. The journal has been created to fill a perceived gap in the field of colour practice and education. One where professional people, from a diverse range of disciplines in which colour plays an important role, can come together to exchange knowledge and ideas, and perhaps begin to develop a common language to facilitate communication in the fascinating world of colour.
Current Issue
This issue of Colour: Design & Creativity is being published in association with Colour Research for European Advanced Technology Employment (CREATE), a group of colour professionals who have come together to promote and exchange research and knowledge through a series of conferences and training courses.
