COLOUR PALATE

COLOUR PALATE

Synesthesia is a rare neurological trait where one sense overlaps with another.

When someone with flavour-to-colour synesthesia tastes a combination of flavours, they may experience a combination of shapes, textures and colours. 

When professor Sean Day takes a mouthful of octopus salad or turkey stew for example, his vision is transformed into a melody of colours.

British Creative Director, Ben Wintour, worked with Sean to bring a number of his meals to life in print.
