Introducing the Colour Circle Book Club
Reading, sharing, and exploring the world of colour together
At ICA-Belgium we believe that colour becomes richer when we explore it collectively. That’s why we’re launching the Colour Circle - ICA-Belgium’s Colour Book Club - a space where you can discover inspiring books on colour, exchange insights, and reflect on how colour shapes our work, our thinking, and our daily lives.
Each session focuses on a selected book: sometimes a classic, sometimes a surprising new title. We read, discuss, and review together - always with an open mind and a playful spirit. Whether you’re a colour professional, an artist, a designer, or simply someone who loves the poetry and psychology of colour, you’re warmly invited to join.
The Colour Circle Book Club is designed to be:
Accessible - no prior expertise required
Interactive - conversations, reflections, and shared discoveries
Inspiring - from colour theory to perception, from art to science
Community‑building - connecting people who see the world through a colourful lens
Private - for ICA-Belgium members and paid subscribers (monthly or yearly) - with hybrid attendance, (online & in person in Belgium).
Whether you are on the other side of the world or in Belgium, we plan to find a way to connect and come together.
For those in Belgium (or willing to come for a visit), we hope to gather in a smaller circle at our members’ homes (so we can, at the same time, have the opportunity to enjoy each other’s colour book collections), while inviting anyone who can’t be present in person, to join us online.
We look forward to reading together and letting colour spark new conversations.
Let us know what colour related books you would like to read and discuss. We will try to invite the authors to join, when possible.
The first Colour Circle Book Club Meeting will take place on 3 May 2026, with hybrid attendance.
The exact time is to be confirmed.
Our first book will be Color for Architects by Juan Serra Lluch. Juan will talk about his book in the upcoming Colour Talk on the 8th of February.

Our approach to book buying recommendations
ICA-Belgium is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the art and science of colour. To support our mission, we plan to participate in curated affiliate programs with partners who share our values.
Supporting an Ethical Literary Ecosystem: We have intentionally chosen not to partner with major corporate monopolies. Instead, we collaborate with:
Independent Marketplaces: We wish to partner with platforms that directly share their profits with local, independent bookstores.
Specialist Academic Publishers: We link directly to Routledge to provide you with the most accurate scientific and artistic research.
How it works: When you purchase a book through our links, the association may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This micro-funding is vital for an NGO like ours, run entirely by volunteers - it helps fund our events, educational projects and support running costs. We only recommend titles that meet professional standards for relevance to the field of colour.
Thank you for supporting independent booksellers and our colourful mission!
