Now in paperback, Duotone explores the possibilities and applications of two-color printing technique, which uses either two shades of the same color, black and one tint, or two different colors. This method brings out middle tones and highlights, and its results are vibrant, colorful and stunning, generating maximum expressivity while minimizing production costs. The wide selection of projects in the book covers different design categories, from logos, brochures, posters, packaging materials, book covers, posters and exhibition materials to screen designs for corporate websites and promotional microsites. The variety of designs reveals the magic of duotone techniques and how designers and artists make full use of its possibilities to create dramatic and dynamic compositions. Duotone is the next big trend in graphic design. It enhances readability, makes the most of minimalist designs without overwhelming the eye, and is the perfect way to effortlessly create unforgettable atmospheres.
