For me, half the battle in designing is color choice. I am in love with very muted colors, so sometimes I need some inspiration. my secret? this book:
Designer's Guide to Color 5
Ikuyoshi Shibukawa and Yumi Takahashi
This particular edition classifies color choice by mood, as well as particular styles, such as Japanese, ethnic etc. Every section has different combinations for each color scheme. Annnnnd each and every color has a designated CMYK number for printing purposes.
This book has helped through many creative blocks and late night artistic meltdowns. I've had it for years and it hasn't failed me yet!!
