Dear {{contact.first_name}},

A new year brings fresh energy – not louder, just clearer. January feels like a blank page, waiting to be filled slowly and intentionally.

Now comes the moment to lean into what’s ahead. With the reset behind us, January invites focus, direction, and a renewed sense of possibility. It’s less about looking back and more about choosing what we want to build, explore, and bring to life.

This year is about moving forward thoughtfully, creating with purpose, and allowing creativity to unfold naturally. It’s about small steps, meaningful progress, and making room for ideas that truly resonate.

We’re looking forward to shaping what comes next, one thoughtful moment at a time. We’re glad you’re here at the start of it all.

Excited for what’s next,

Bibi

The Power of Beginning Again

What if beginning again wasn’t about change, but about noticing? This new blog explores what happens when we slow down and pay attention to the moments we usually rush past. It starts with a quiet question, a blank page, and an unexpected role for color. There’s no pressure to reinvent, only an invitation to look a little closer. Read the full blog to discover why beginning again can be more powerful than it sounds.

A Story I’m Carrying Into the New Year

This year, alongside our work at Culture to Color®, I’m continuing a project that is very close to my heart.

For the past years, I’ve been working on Voices of the Berlin Airlift, a book-in-the-making that captures personal memories from people connected to one of the most extraordinary humanitarian efforts of the 20th century.

As many of you know, I grew up in Berlin during the Cold War, in a city shaped by history, division, and resilience. The Berlin Airlift was not just something I learned about later; it was part of the atmosphere I grew up in. Over time, I realized how many of these stories still live quietly in people’s memories, and how important it is to preserve them now.

“Stories don’t disappear all at once. They fade when they’re not shared. This project is about listening, recording, and making sure these voices are not lost.”

Through Voices of the Berlin Airlift, I’ve had the privilege of speaking with eyewitnesses, children in postwar Berlin, veterans, crew members, family members, and historians — each carrying a piece of lived history. Together, their stories reveal courage, humanity, and resilience in moments of immense challenge.

What connects this project to the work we do at Culture to Color® is simple:
Stories bring people together. Visuals make them accessible. And when we combine memory, creativity, and thoughtful storytelling, history becomes something we can engage with — not just something we read about.

As the year unfolds, I’ll be sharing more about this project, the people behind it, and the lessons these stories still hold for us today.

TAKE A LOOK

January is a great time to reconnect, not sell. A thoughtful message, a shared story, or a moment of inspiration often creates more impact than a promotion.


Here’s to a year of meaningful stories, unexpected connections, and creative moments in between. Wishing you a calm start, fresh energy, and space for what wants to grow this year. May each day bring a small spark of curiosity, a moment to pause, and opportunities to explore in new ways.

Thank you for being part of our community – we’re glad to begin another year together. We look forward to sharing ideas, projects, and inspiration with you, and seeing where this year’s creativity will take us all.

Let’s make this year amazing,
