Color Mark: City Scape Hues

This week I've been particularly nostalgic about my life back in the US for many reasons. For some reason this week I've been on the phone a lot with many of my friends back there... and it reminded me of the good times.

Pantone match from top to bottom: 493 C, 1797 C, 123 C, Cool Grey 2C, 659 C

I took this photo from my balcony... I've always liked this sequence of colorful buildings that are so Miami from back in the 80's before the all white towers took over. The buildings are not architecturally beautiful but they always sort of looked good against he beautiful blue of the sky.

Have a great and colorful day!

    You can't beat Floridian architecture and the colors. I will agree with you there!

    I love a bit of color worked into architecture- same ol' boring brown and white needs a little shake up now and again! :)
