The new Compact Color Atlas includes the same 4,320 color swatches as the original, but is condensed from six to two slim volumes for increased mobility. Selling for a fraction of the price, the compact edition is also a first entry option for smaller brands and up-and-coming designers willing to access a best-in-class color management tool. It's also a great additional option for companies who might like to expand Archroma's tools within their organization.archroma newsletter21 5

The Compact edition includes 2.5 x 2.5 cm (1" x 1") single-layer color swatches, while lighter colors are represented with two-layer swatches in order to more faithfully present a hue's true appearance. This edition's swatches are securely attached to the page, as opposed to the full edition's removable swatch interface.

"Whether a designer is travelling around the world on an inspirational journey, or just across town to a corporate office, the Compact Color Atlas offers portability and flexibility, complementing the full Color Atlas's capabilities," says Chris Hipps, Archroma Color Management's director of global operations. "This is also a great introduction to the program for young brands and design talent."
