Every Encounter Has a Color
10 colored cards in folded envelope

concept and design

The inside of the envelope list all the names of people we have encountered in 2001. Each person has been given a color name in the language of the encounter (english, dutch, german or french). Enclosed in the envelope are 10 colored cards with the title “every encounter has a color.”

Not very often do we have the time to create a “present” for our friends (and clients). End of 2000 we managed to go back into our memories and the encounters with the people we met in that year to decide what color came in mind. The color name was a gift to our friends.
