Raw Color is an exciting experimental graphic design duo based in the Netherlands.  They have worked for several years on using vegetable dye extractions in their printing processes and documenting the nuances of natural color through photography.

Their statement for this project:

“A visual research about vegetables and their powerful color. Vegetables are dismantled and purified to their visual essence ‘RAW COLOR’. The harvested color is captured by a new process preserving their intensity on color cards. Categorized by shades and families a new map is created which shows their beautiful diversity. This projects reinterprets the vegetable and puts it into new context.”
