I was pleasantly surprised with this treasure as it is packed full of color inspiration. This is not only a guide to using color but also contains more than 60 pages of color combinations based on different themes like "Luscious & Sweet, Spicy & Tangy, Playful, Festive and so on.
The author of this book is Leatrice Eiseman who is a color specialist and prime consultant to Pantone. She has been labeled as the "international color guru" and after seeing this book I totally understand why and I would like to own more of her other works.
I can see I'm going to get a lot of inspiration from this book and I have it handy on our coffee table for instant viewing.
And speaking of Pantone colors..., Pantone annouced their color of the year for 2012 ... which is Tangerine Tango ...
I love this spicy and hot new color that is described as a "spirited reddish orange ... to provide the energy boost we need to recharge and move forward".
I will be mixing up the new pantone colors soon and will have some new shades of inspiration to share with you in the new year....
