Colour Lives Here

10 creatives, 10 stories, 10 ways with colour

Colour Lives Here brings together ten UK and international creatives whose work begins and ends with colour. In their studios, on their desks, and in their hands, the palette becomes method, mood and meaning. From the bold punch of riso print to the quiet precision of conceptual photography, from objects and interiors rooted in heritage to spaces shaped by community, each creative shows a different way colour moves. Discover their interviews, tools and work-in-progress, and see how ideas spark, shift and speak when colour leads the way.
