-
Colour, Quality and Perception is half of a book of two parts, designed to support an exhibition held in October 2015 titled Apples to Apples. The foundation of the exhibition was the concept of dichotomy, which lead to the decision to bi-sect the book. The two halves, red and green (symbolic of red and green apples), align side by side to create a circle, alluding to an apple graphic. The book functions as an exhibition catalogue, exploring the outcomes and processes of the two designers contributions. The internal design is clean and graphic, delivering information to those engaging in the exhibition in a subtly conceptual manner.
