In January 2000 the currencies of 12 European countries were substituted by a new, unified one, the Euro. The unification of the currency as an economic enterprise also had to unify the iconography representing the 12 countries. Writers, queens, painters and scientists gave way to contemporary roman accueducts and modern greek temples. All and none in one.
In spite of the simplicity of the new design, vibrant colors identify each bill. Purples, oranges, yellows and greens are now the iconographic elements of the old continent. The Color of Money reaches for those colors to create a new language of commerce, where the user makes paintings with the color scheme of each bill. Type a number larger than 5 and the value of such number will be represented by the colors of the bills. The system follows a logical calculation of the best combination of bills when dealing with larg numbers.
