Colour Memories, a new exhibition by The Museum of Architecture and sponsored by Axalta, which just opened yesterday, celebrates the role of colour in architecture and design.
Capturing the personal colour stories and inspirations of over 20 architects, the exhibition gives insight into the colourful worlds of, among others, Jonathan Hagos’ connections to salmon orange, Harbinder Singh Birdi’s traffic red and Paul Monaghan’s link to Victorian tile green.
