Die blaue Bibliothek

The Blue Library

Being the colour of the sky and the ocean, blue surrounds us all the time without ever being within reach. Blue stimulates us to gaze into the distance, calms and enlivens us at the same time. Its enormous depth derives from the almost unfathomable richness of meaning we associate with this colour.

When we hear the word “blue”, we might think of the blue hour, “Blue Velvet” or the blue lagoon.
