Colour Theory

by Amber on December 16, 2008 in Notebook

What do you get when you combine bibliophilia with an aesthetic obsession?

A personal curatorship that amuses and inspires!

Red and orange and yellow and green, indigo, violet and blue…

The power of colour can not be underestimated for bringing interesting new dimensions to your life. Gorgeous and so easy… anyone can do it!

Red clothes

Make your whole life seemingly organised – Rearrange your CD’s like Nattbarn has done or your clothes – a la Nubby Twiglet. Read only green books for a month. Eat a rainbow of foods for a week (at your own risk). Only take photos of yellow objects or, if you’re feeling sassy, pink. Write your diary out in lime green ink. Work within constraints to break new ground in your life. Feel the power of the spectrum… Embrace it!

YES! Awesome.
Also, that last photo is from Copenhagen! I’ve been to that shop more times than I can count.

Amazing! I really want to go to that last shop!

Oh, thank you so much for that link :] I would caution against Blue Friday.

I like the green-books-for-a-month idea. Could cover a really wide variety!

Young: Carmen & Fantasia right?. Oh how I’d love to go vintage shopping in Copenhagen <3

Vixel: Sweet, let’s go then!

Johanna: It’s such a cool project – genius! I’ve actually started reading green books as a way to choose something out of my huge stack of “to read”. First up, the collected works of Charles Dickens…

There’s nothing better than walking into a color organized closet! Rainbows are awesome, and clothes are fabulous. Put them together? Near perfection. :)

I’m ready to begin my “green period” in books!
