NEW JOURNAL CALL FOR PAPERS

 

 

A new journal from the Society of Dyers and Colourists (SDC), the world’s leading professional society devoted entirely to colour, is planned for 2007 which will appeal to colourists, designers, scientists, artists and other professionals. If you are active in the creative use of colour in design and related areas and are looking for an outlet to publish your work, we hope this new journal will become the medium of choice.

Colour: Design and Creativity is a new electronic journal that aims to become the premier forum for the publication of reports of research-based and practice-based work that is colour-and design-related. The fields of interest include, but are not limited, to:

 

Colour communication 

 

Colour design

 

Colour emotion

 

Colour in fashion design

 

Colour forecasting

 

Colour harmony

 

Colour in art theory and practice 

 

Colour in marketing

 

Colour in the built environment

 

Colour perception

 

Colour psychology 

 

Cultural and global issues

 

Environmental design 

 

Graphic design

Sensory design

 

Authors can expect a high-quality peer review process operated by an international editorial panel of high-profile, respected experts in many aspects of colour and design that will validate and enhance the status of all work published.

 

The journal’s philosophy is to act as a multidisciplinary journal addressing all aspects of colour and design, featuring articles that systematically describe evidence-based applications of colour in design, art, architecture, fashion, etc. Articles reporting basic, applied and theoretical research related to colour will also be included.

 

Review and explanatory papers, case studies, essays, and reviews of books, events, collections, installations, etc. are also sought.
