VIEWPOINT COLOUR 15 - ARISE!

In this issue of Viewpoint Colour, we explore the essence of humanity. Looking at ways design, fashion, art and other creative forms reflect on the human condition. Starting at our origin, followed by all the things that root us from our ancestors to our birth, ending the journey with death, which doesn’t necessarily mean the end of life. Colour is of great importance during this journey, speaking to us through memory and constantly influencing our feelings.
In our Arise issue, we seek to inspire and inform, helping you with colour decisions for a world that is more visually sophisticated than ever. We hope you will enjoy this issue.

 

CONTENTS VIEWPOINT COLOUR #15
A selection from the 21 colour and lifestyle articles in the issue Arise

THE CONTEXT
Understanding that the elements within our bodies have been recycled throughout the history of the universe fosters a sense of continuity and belonging to something larger than ourselves.

CITY COLOURSCAPES
Rio De Janeiro, Rotterdam, New York                           

SEASONAL COLOUR STATEMENTS
This season, we explore the basics, which do not necessarily mean the core basics of colour but rather the fundamental purpose of colour.

VISIONS ON COLOUR
Colour cards, influences, colour harmonies of our five stories spread out across the book – Origins, Birth, Roots, Ancestral, and Death

BREATHING MOUNTAINS
The eruption of a volcano is both revered and feared by humanity. Over the centuries and around the world, these living mountains have been worshipped as gods and goddesses, withrituals and spiritual practices organized aroundtheir activity to ensure fertility and prosperity.

ALMA MATER
Motherhood, rich in symbolism and emotion, profoundly inspires the fields of design, decoration, fashion, and art. In interior design, it is expressed through rounded shapes, soft spongy materials, and warm delicate colours that evoke protection and comfort. In fashion, it translates into comfortable yet elegant garments with stretchy fabrics and peachy tones that envelop and protect the body to improve movement and resilience.

A LOVE LETTER TO HIS HOMELAND
In an era dominated by visual culture, the importance of visual literacy has become crucial for navigating a landscape where images are central to communication and cultural expression. 

A DANCE WITH NATURE
In the vast tapestry of existence, humans have been intimately connected to nature. We emerge from our mother's womb in nature's time, like a budding flower. 

THE THREAD OF LIFE
As we navigate through turbulent times, we cling to our small, unique personal journeys and cherish the encounters we have and the experiences we gain; we allow room for our roots and origins to bond with our new paths and life stories to create unexpected and new narratives.

CRACKS RUN THROUGH OUR LIVES
Artist and architect Ola Hassanain intertwines family history with the materiality and temporality of water and clay. Zooming in on the physical qualities, and effects of time on water and clay.

A DECADE OF BONNE SUITS

As Bonne Suits celebrates its first decade, we sit down with Bonne and his right-hand man, Emile, at the flagship store located at Warmoesstraat 67 in Amsterdam, to reflect on the story of Bonne Suits, exploring its past achievements and the vision guiding its next chapter.

REBIRTH
What kind of legacy do we want to leave for the future? How can we design more consciously and sustainably? How can we ensure that our ‘fossils’ tell a positive story about our relationship with the planet and ourselves?

SHADOWS TO LIGHT
The association of colours with concepts like death and birth is deeply rooted in cultural symbolism and varies across different societies and historical periods. The colours black and white are particularly powerful symbols, often carrying opposite meanings depending on the cultural context.

VIEWPOINT COLOUR # 8: NEW HORIZONS

Published 27th August 2020

After a time of deep uncertainty, we are seeing an emerging desire for resurgence, growth and positivity. 

In this issue we explore a new world order, where the authentic is celebrated through the breaking down of traditional rules and the creation of new values.

In this new world order there are no constraints, and fluidity underpins this emerging vision - high tech meets low tech, the old is combined with the new, boundaries are blurred.

Colour becomes paramount in defining new identities and shaping these positive visions of the future. We see individuals and creatives expressing themselves in ways which have never been done before through digital environments, new beauty standards, dynamic creative processes and fantastical representations of the self.

Whilst there is a clear turn towards the digital and virtual world, there is also a renewed desire for tactile and material experiences. 

CONTENTS VIEWPOINT COLOUR #8 NEW HORIZONS

Key Colour Statements
Shapes by contradictory influences, the colour and design landscape has an exciting hybridised aesthetic that marries opposing ideas: reflection and action, individuality and collaboration, virtual and real. We are realising the need for a longer-term colour application that is enduring and timeless, while also recognising that shorter-term directional colour has a clear role to play in creating fresh new statements and personal expression.

Brutalist Beauty
Featuring work from ‘instagram’s most hated beauty account’ by Eszter Magyar. Exploring new beauty standards which challenge traditional perceptions of beauty through the unconventional use of colour, texture and materiality. 

Electric Nature
Andres Reisinger’s beautifully rendered images of natural landscapes which feel both otherworldly and approachable. Through these visuals, Reisinger breaks with the harsh and bold aesthetics that often characterise digital renders. 

Guerrilla Dyeing
Working with natural dyes in a way which feels fresh, rebellious and new, Audrey Louis Reynolds steers away from the aesthetics we would traditionally associate with natural dyes and pigments. 

Off Colour
A series of visual portraits that showcase Tomihiro Kono’s original take on wig making. The wigs are characterised by the use of ‘off colours’ - a celebration of unconventional pastels challenging typical wig colours. 

Clay Play
A compilation of clay maquettes presented for Eny Lee Parker’s clay play contest. High-end interiors made from playdough; high-tech meets low-tech; and a celebration of colours through making.

Beneath the Surface
Photographer Pim Top overlays digital textures and images to produce visuals which challenge slick digital aesthetics and colours.

Colour Futures
Inspiration from the work of the renowned artist Samara Scott Textural with exploratory manifestations of colour, where materiality is key.
