Hello

I work in PPG Company. In Azerbaijan. I’m a manager of PPG. I have an Atmospheric palette. But I don’t know how to use it in Corob system. For example – how could we tint ATC-3 – for Manor Hall ?

Thanks in advance

Great Post Dee! Much like a logo, how you decorate your home says a lot about your personality and what you represent! How you present your home can really reflect you as a person, much like a logo to a business. Fun read! Hope to read more posts soon!

Hi, Sam,

We can send you a colour card if you’d like one with paint deposits of all 100 colours. If you’re a designer, please forward your coordinates and we can have a representative get you an Atmospheric fan deck.

Kind regards,

Joanne

Comment on Lessons in Lace by Andrea Pohl

I’ve always been partial to lace and have incorporated it into many designs. I love how it has evolved in design, the applications, the way the light plays on both the positive and negative, the design of the cutouts, the dimension, and ‘using lace with modern designs’- perfect. I would love to walk through Brennan Buck’s Technicolor Bloom installation – it’s a vision of modern whimsy.

Comment on Black in Feng Shui by Fawn Chang

Great article, Dee! It’s true, Black is the color associated with the Feng Shui element Water: just as you don’t know how deep some of those puddles are, the depth of black takes us deep into contemplation. It is reflective, spiritual and emotionnal. Speaks of the journey, career and life purpose.

Teens are often drawn to deeper colors like black, innately knowing it’s protective qualities; it helps them go deep inside to begin to structure their individuality.

If you have teen that wants to paint her/his room black, indulge them with an accent wall. It will say to them that you honor their need for individuality and trust their evolving style.

When you both are ready for a change of scene, tint your first coat of primer over the black wall with a color like Gray Frost (555-4) or Blue Dolphin (549-4) to mitigate the depth of black and make it easier to apply lighter colors.

Comment on Color Psychology Orange by Paula Douglas

I’ve heard that orange was Frank Sinatra’s favorite color. What’s even more fun is the reason why people react to certain colors. Like a yellow kitchen to some is perfect and to others it just looks like old grease. Is it something in ther subconscious past or even something chemical? What makes people choose the colors they do?

As much as I love red, I think I would still keep the traditional white gown but certainly would jazz it up a bit with some accents of color. I did a post on the same thing and oddly enough, as a Color Specialist I had a black and white wedding ~ beautiful ~
