Her invention, a simple little colour globe, is being used by the most distinguished colour professionals. It constantly creates "aha-moments" and the most common comment is "why did not anybody do this before...?" In trade shows, many tired passers-by have beens stopped with her incite "don´t miss the most interesting stand at this show!" After a couple of minutes with Nicoline, they have agreed that they learned something they will never forget and are happy they where convinced to listen.
This comes as no surprise, she is a problem-solver of magnitude and has always been good at "thinking outside the box".
Nicoline is a keen believer in Esperanto and says that when her company Kolormondo gets big enough, Esperanto will be its official language; all employees will start with a 2 weeks course in Esperanto.
Her mission with Kolormondo: To enable anyone and everyone to know, enjoy, use and talk: colour.

Coming from a non-artistic background, I am learning about the amazing - and complex - subject of colour and how much it influences all of us, in almost all aspects of life. On a personal level it has changed my life; a seemingly grey sky is in fact full of nuances and enjoyable!
And yet, colour is often disregarded and does not get the attention it needs and deserves.
