Brown

Brown posters, and the warmth a room borrows from a wall

Brown makes a wall feel used rather than decorated. It carries orange without shouting, holds black without turning cold, and it is why a room of wooden furniture looks unfinished until something warm goes up.

A dance notice in which two figures lock together into the shape of a guitar, lettered in flat orange, brown and black is brown at its most graphic. The drinks sheet, a figure in a long black coat pouring from a green bottle under a soft yellow halo takes its warmth from the light instead. The park seen from above, plane trees in flat green over a sand-coloured track would rather be a landscape.

One is enough beside wood.
