publication · 2026-04-02

On December 6, 2021, designer Barbara Olejarczyk presented an editorial design and illustration project for a children's publication called 'Let's Play Colours'. The book explores the concept of visual perception in young readers through imaginative illustrations. According to the project description, children globally possess varied sensitivities but share exposure to pervasive imagery that shapes how they see the world. The publication questions whether a children's book could exist without drawings, suggesting that stimulating imagination while allowing visual rest could be beneficial. Adrian Ciszek contributed animation and visualizations to the project. The work was featured on the design platform Abduzeedo, which showcases creative projects across various disciplines.
