"Few can deny the immense power of colour. It transcends the boundaries of art, design, photography, architecture and fashion. It possesses physical, sensual, spiritual and intellectual qualities. Throughout history, philosophers, scientists, mathematicians and artists from Pythagoras and Aristotle to Newton and Albers have sought to explain its mysteries. We’ve all read their theories. We know what yellow does to our mood. And yet, for all of their systemization and categorization, why a particular shade, or combination of shades, can touch our soul still remains completely and utterly inexplicable." From the foreword by Marta Cutler and Vanessa Eckstein (Blok Design)
