How Do Colours Shape Our Lives?

One of the first ways children learn is by sorting things by colour, so selecting appropriate colours for children’s illustrations is very important.

‘How Do Colours Shape Our Lives?’ was a self-initiated university project, where through a child-friendly interpretation of a publication, I could educate others about the significant role colour has on children’s lives.

The different coloured cards in the box provided information about 10 colours, exploring what they mean and symbolise, what we associate them with, what effect they have on a person and how they can be used both positively and negatively.  They are all illustrated accordingly to appeal to children using bold, block colours and shapes.
