COLOR & LIFE-STYLE REPORT

 

IT’S ALL ABOUT KNOWING THE SECRETS …THAT COLOR IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN STYLING.  COLOR ACTIVATES AND INFLUENCES OUR EMOTIONS, SENSES, LIVES, AND DESIRES. COLOR CONNECTS US ALL TO OUR ENVIRONMENT, THE ELEMENTS AND THE UNIVERSE. MELO-INTERNATIONAL FOCUSES ON GLOBAL LIFE-STYLES COLOR TRENDS THAT SEND A MESSAGE. 

BENTHOS- THE WORLD IS SEARCHING FOR GLOBAL PEACE, UNITY, AND HARMONY  “YENG AND YANG”.  BLACK AND WHITE PLAY THE LEADING ROLES IN FINDING THIS BALANCE BETWEEN THE TWO. TRUE EXPLORERS AND  WISDOM SEEKERS SEARCH FOR ANSWERS IN THE DEEP OCEANS, “GOD’S CREATIONS”, AND OUTSIDE OUR UNIVERSE. THEY USE TECHNOLOGY IN ORDER TO LOOK DEEPER INTO ALL CREATURES, PLANTS, AND NON-LIFE FORMS USING X-RAY ART… NEWER RATHER THAN COMPLICATED PATTERNS AND PRINTS ARE ABOUT TO EMERGE.  TEXTURES, FROM PUCKERS TO SLUBS, ADD AN ELEMENT OF NORMALITY TO SOLID AND LAYERED COLOR, WHILE SHEER TO SHEEN SURFACE EFFECTS ADD AN ELUSIVE ILLUSION QUALITY TO THIS REFRESHING SPECTRUM.  A VERSATILE FAMILY OF COLOR FOR SPRING/SUMMER…A ASSORTMENT OF ALL COLORS FAMILIES…BRIDGING COOL AND WARM SPECTRUM…FEATURING COLORS COMBINATIONS FROM BENTHOS- Benthos is the community of organisms which live on, in, or near the seabed, also known as the benthic zone.  SCALES FROM SEA LIFE INSPIRE THIS COLOR PALETTE AS TO THE NEED FOR TRANSPARENCY ON ALL LEVELS OF OUR SOCIETY. WHITE COOL BLUES CONTINUE TO DULCIFY LUXURIOUS TO SPORTY GROUNDS. YELLOWED GREENS RANGE FROM SUBTLE NEUTRALS TO INVIGORATING BRIGHT INTENSITIES TO BLONDE TO GOLD CASTS THAT ADD SUNNY WARMTH TO NATURAL TEXTURED AND “HANDCRAFTED” COTTONS, LINENS, SILKS, AND SYNTHETICS.  WHITE STANDS ON ITS OWN AS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT NEUTRAL…FOR DAY AND NIGHT…AND METALLIC'S ARE OFTEN COLORED IN SEASONAL HUES.  COLOR BLOCKING AND LAYERING CREATES HIGH CONTRAST TO OMBRE EFFECTS.
