I would like to thank my personal tutor John, and all the other tutors and fellow students on MA Graphic Design at London College of Communication for their advice and encouragement, it has been much appreciated. I would also like to say a special thanks to Richard Ashworth, Karen Skorski and Lisa Roberts at the Society of Dyers and Colourists for their time, expertise and opinions and to Simon Tiutwein, David Batchelor, Patrick Baty, Rob and Nick Carter, Karen Haller, Janet Best and Alan Dye for allowing me to interview them for this project. Also to Colin Jones and everyone at Blindness In Greenwich for their contributions and openness in discussing their experiences of colour. I would also like to acknowledge everyone who participated in the survey for this project, your contributions have helped to demonstrate the sheer variety in the way we describe colours, making the outcome of the project a viable proposition. I am also eternally grateful to Chris Duke and the print team at Blissetts for their endeavours to produce all the printed material for this project on time, to a tight budget. Finally, thanks to Andrew and my family for their support and understanding over the last two years and everyone else who has given their time or expertise to my research, without which this project would not have been possible.
