Colours, personified.

White shows how it can act as a facade to many things where we never know what’s really behind it. It shows mystery and complexity due to its minimalist characteristic.
Chrome Golden Yellow shows positive energy and movement relating to childhood where we can feel the reminiscing character through the warmth provided by the colour.

The colour yellow takes me back to my childhood when the mornings consisted of sunshine and flowers.

My eyes lit up as I saw the morning sun ray coming through the kitchen window illuminating all the dust particles in its way as I sat on the counter while my mom made breakfast, in awe of the air around us. My first ever slam book was yellow. The favourite wall of my room, which I painted with my cousins one fine afternoon during my summer break, was yellow. Oh how much I loved putting those yellow sticky notes on my Physics notes.
