The Chromologist

If you had to choose four key colours that have shaped your life, what would they be?

As a colour expert for Farrow & Ball he gets to roll his sleeves up and turn people’s colour dreams into realities. So join him for The Chromologist, as he immerses himself in the lives of creatives, designers and performers who share their stories through colour, guided by the Farrow & Ball colour chart. And uncover your own colour story.

    Interesting and Soothing
    I really love this podcast-it’s such an interesting way to interview people and learn about them-through colors. It’s made me think about what I would label and how it relates to my life. I love F&B, and love to hear the background and inspiration of the colors. I listen to this mostly at night, and it soothes me to sleep-but then I have to listen in the daytime to get the info! Please keep it up I truly enjoy it so much!

    Keep adding color to my world!
    As someone who always had colors meld with each season of my life, this podcast was a delight to discover. I especially LOVED the nerdy (said with heartfelt affection) descriptions of specific colors and the joy in finding connection THROUGH COLOR!! Did I hear you say the last podcast was the completion? Because if so I’d be most disappointed. I’m tired of feeling like an outsider in my suburban world for my love of color. This show helped me feel loved.
