I developed this Color Guide in 2009 with 57 pages as one of my final projects for Graphic Design school. I took photographs of personal importance to me, that did reflect my life to this point in time.

I chose to only communicate through photos of objects in my everyday environment or events rather than to depict people. People are only reflected through the objects or events that I associated them with.

The colors were generated by calculating the average color composition of every single photo. Every page shows the color that depicts the average color at 100%, 66% and 33% saturation and explains why I chose a certain photo and/or contains a short summarization of my thoughts.

The viewer can form their own opinion about me and maybe find similarities we share. New contacts can be made, already existing friendships can grow deeper by revealing very personal thoughts.
