Key Quotes

p.10‘There is a kind of white that is more than white, and this was that kind of white. There is a kind of white that repels everything that is inferior to it, and that is almost everything. This was that kind of white. There is a kind of white that is not created by bleach but that itself is bleach. This was that kind of white. This white was aggressively white. It did its work on everything around it, and nothing escaped.’

p.12‘What is it that motivated this fixation with white?’

p.52‘If colour is cosmetic, it is added to the surface of things, and probably at the last moment. It does not have a place within things; it is an after thought; it can be rubbed off.’

Colour, then, is arbitrary and unreal: mere make-up. But while it may be superficial, that is not quite the same as being trivial, for cosmetic colour is also always less than honest.’

‘There is an ambiguity in make-up; cosmetics can often confuse, cast doubt, mask or manipulate; they can produce illusions or deceptions.’

p.62‘In at least one sense, all painting is cosmetic. All painting involves the smearing of coloured paste over a flat, bland surface, and is done in order to trick and deceive a viewer.’

‘In one sense, all painting is cosmetic, but in another sense the use of flat screen-printed and industrial colours will always appear cosmetic – applied, stuck

on, removable – in a way that the modulated colours and tone of oil paint do not.’

p.79‘To attend to colour, then, is, in part, to attend to the limits of language, what a world without language might be like’

‘Many commentators have taken the image of childhood as a model, if not for a language-free universe then at least for a world in which language has not yet fully established its grip on experience; this world is, also, more often than not, saturated in colour.’

‘Stories of adulthood tend more often to lament a world of colour eclipsed by the shadow of language; they present images of luminous childood becoming clouded by the habits of adult life.’

‘Elizabeth Barrett Browning: ‘Frequent tears have run the colours from my life.’

p.80‘If in many of these stories the exposure to language robs a life of its colour, are there then other stories in which it happens the other way around? Are there equal and opposite stories in which exposure to colour robs a life of its language, stories in which a sudden flood of colour renders a speaker speechless’

p.81‘The idea that colour is beyond, beneath or in some other way at the limit of language has been expressed in a number of ways by a number of writers’

8 Colour and Culture by John Gage‘the feeling that verbal language is incapable of defining the experience of colour’

‘In Colour Codes, Charles A. Riley notes that “ colour refuses to conform to schematic and verbal systems’

p.82 Julia Kristeva‘that while ‘semiological approaches consider painting a language,’ they are limited insofar as ‘they do not allow for an equivalent for colour within the elements of language identified by linguistics.’

p.83 Jacqueline Lichtenstein‘Colour is ‘ a pleasure that exceeds discursiveness. Like passion, the pleasure of coloris slips away from linguistic determination’

‘this does not indicate a deficiency in colour so much as the insufficiency and impotence of language’

‘Whereof we cannot speak, thereof we must remain silent’ said Wittgenstein, who also saw in colour the outer limits of language.

p.84‘How often, when it comes to colour – do we revert to a gesture? How often do we find ourselves having to point to an example of colour? Dulux, a division of Imperial Chemical Industries and one of the largest commercial paint manufacturers in England, ran a series of television advertisements to promote their extensive range of household colours. Significantly, they were silent films; there was no dialogue in the group of scenes that made up each of the short narratives. These were films

about pointing. … beneath the commercial drive of its surface narrative, the stories of the yellow shirt and the lavender underpants were also philosophical tales about the inadequacy of words. They ask how it is possible for us accurately to represent colours to each other, when verbal language has proved itself entirely insufficient. And they suggest that, almost automatically, we reach outside of language with the help of a gesture. We point, sample and show rather than say. And in our pointing sampling and showing we make comparisons. In doing this, we call for the help of something outside ourselves and outside language, and in the process we expose the limits of our words.’

p.85‘They asked how it is possible for us accurately to represent colours to each other, when verbal language has proved itself entirely insufficient.’

‘To fall into colours is to run out of words’

‘But there are other ways in which words fail us when it comes to colour, and so there are still reasons to continue. We have to shift the ground a bit, however, and begin to talk less of ‘colour’ and more of ‘colours’. What is the difference? If colour is single and colours are many, how can we have both?’

‘Plotinus said colour is ‘devoid of parts’, and this is probably among the most significant things ever said on the subject.’

Colour was single; it was indivisible. But in being indivisible, colour also put itself beyond the reach of rational analysis.’

9


‘If colour is indivisible, a continuum, what sense can there be in talking of colours? None, obviously… except we do it all the time. Colour spreads flows bleeds stains floods soaks seeps merges. It does not segment or subdivide. Colour is fluid.’

‘Colour may be a continuum, but the continuum is continuously broken, the indivisible is endlessly divided.’

‘From at least the time of Newton, colour has been subjected to the discipline of geometry, ordered into an endless variety of colour circles, triangles, stars, cubes, cylinders or spheres. These shapes always contain divisions, and these divisions, as often as not, contain words. And with these words colour becomes colours. But what does it mean to divide colour into colours? Where do the divisions occur? Is it possible that these divisions are somehow internal to colour, that they form a part of the nature of colour? Or are they imposed on colour by conventions of language and culture?

p.87‘Colour has not yet been named’, said Derrida. Perhaps not, but some colours have. We have colour names, and so we have colours.

The human brain can distinguish minute variations in colour; it has been said that we can recognize several million different colours. At the same time, in contemporary English, there are just eleven general colour names in common usesage: Black, white, red, yellow, green, blue, brown, purple, pink, orange, grey.

p.88Literary Welsh , for example has no words that correspond exactly with the English ‘green’, ‘blue’, ‘grey’ and ‘brown’; Vietnamase and Korean make no clear distinction between green and blue; and Russian has no single word for blue, but two words denoting different colours. Then there is purple. Newton had a problem with it, which we will return to, and so do the French, a language which, like English, also scores the full eleven on the Belin-Kay scale. But if the French violet corresponds to our ‘violet’, it would seem that it is not quite the same as our purple. Likewise, their brun might more or less correspond to our ‘brown’, at least in the abstract, as a colour term; but when used descriptively rather than referentially, when applied to things in the world like shoes, hair and eyes, brown and brun part company. French shoes may be brown, but they aren’t brun so much as marron. And French hair, if it’s brun, is dark rather than brown.

‘Derek Jarman: ‘This morning I met a friend on the corner of Oxford Street. He was wearing a beautiful yellow coat. I remarked on it. He had bought it in Tokyo and he said it was sold to him as green.’ 20

p.89‘For Lyons, the lesson of Hanunoo and other languages is that colour names are so tired into cultural usage of one kind or another that any abstract equivalence is effectively lost. In some cases they cease to be colour names in the ordinary sense. To conceive of colour in terms of independent of, say luminosity or reflectiveness is in itself a cultural and linguistic habit and not a universal occurrence. Ditto the separation of hue from tone.’

10 ‘Such basic colour terms as we have, to put it another way, even terms like ‘colour’, are the products of language and culture more than the products of colour.’

p.90‘the names of colours, in themselves, have no precise chromatic content: they must be viewed within the general context of many interacting semiotic systems.’

‘Russian, we are told has two words for blue. That is to say, Russians appear to deal with blue in roughly the way we deal with red and pink. Certainly, what we call light blue is optically distant from dark blue as pink is from red, perhaps more to, and yet our language allows no such independence for bits of blue. ‘Pink’ is the only basic colour term in English that also denotes a specific part of another basic colour term, one end of ‘red’. But there seems to be no necessary reason for this in terms of our experience of colour. When we see light blue, do we see something different from what a Russian speaker sees? And while we are on the subject of light and dark, what about dark yellow? Yellow is certainly the lightest of the spectrum colours, but when yellow is darkened, where does it go? Does it get wrapped up in a kind of brown? Or is it lost to the insecure empire of orange? And if we can just about imagine yellow drifting and darkening towards orange and brown, why can’t we imagine it turning towards green in the same way? What happens to yellow as it travels towards green? And how distinct is green from yellow? More distinct than orange is from yellow and purple s from blue and from red? Probably, but then why don’t we have a name or names for the colour space between green and yellow?

p.91‘For the philosopher C. L. Hardin, the author of one of the most comprehensive and rigorous studies of the science of colour, this gap, this nameless colour between yellow and green, remains an anomaly (as does the entire existence of pink, incidentally). Nevertheless, he offers a tentative and, for a philosopher-scientist, a rather weird explanation for this space: he thinks it is not a very nice colour, or that people tend not to like it, so nobody has bothered to name it.’

‘Wittgenstein asked: ‘How do I know this colour is red?’ To which he replied: ‘… because I have learned English.’ 27

p.92‘William Gass on the relationship between colour names and colours, starting with blue:The word itself has another colour. It’s not a word with any resonance, although the e was once pronounced. There is only a bump now between the b and l, the relief at the end, the whew. It hasn’t the sly turn which crimson takes halfway though, yellow’s deceptive jelly, or the rolled down sound in brown. It hasn’t violet’s rapid sexual shudder, or like a rough road the irregularity of ultramarine, the low puddle un mauve like a pancake covered in cream, the disapproving purse to pink, the assertive brevity of red, the whine of green.’ 28

Arthur Rimbaud‘I invented the colour of vowels! – A black, E white, I red, O blue, U green.’ 29

11


‘To discuss colour terms is, it seems, to talk about language more than it is to talk about colour.’

‘Basic colour terms may be universal, but they are useless when it comes to the study of colour.’

‘Gass’s beloved blue is everywhere, and everywhere it is different. The word blue holds the entire disorganized and antagonistic mass of blues in a prim four-lettered cage.’

p.981964 radio interview Frank Stella‘I knew a wise-guy who used to make fun of may paintings, but he didn’t like the Abstract Expressionists either. He said the would be good painters if they could only keep the paint as good as it was in the can.’

‘To keep the paint as good as it was in the can’ Frank Stella

p.99‘The change in art it acknowledges may not seem so big: it says that paint now comes from a can. That is, from a can rather than from a tube: whereas artists’ paints usually come in tubes, industrial or household paints are normally stored in cans. Artists’ paints were developed to allow the representation of various kinds of bodies in different types of space. ‘Flesh was the reason oil painting was invented’, said De Kooning. Industrial paints are made to cover large surfaces in a uniform layer of flat colour. They form a skin, but they do not suggest flesh.’

‘Not only did this type of paint come in a can, it looked good in the can.’

‘The anxiety that Stella’s remark betrays does not, or at least does not directly, concern the loss of three or more centuries of oil and easel painting. He was pointing in another direction. His concern was not how his work would measure up to the art of the past but how it would compare with the paint in the can.’

p.100‘That Stella sought to ‘keep’ the paint that ‘good’ suggests he knew it might be hard to improve on the materials in their raw state, that once the paint had been put to use in art, it might well be less interesting than when it was ‘in the can’.’

Paint and Paint NamesDaniel Harris

Cabinet Magazine Article

I had painted walls only once in my life and was entirely unprepared to tackle the six rooms of the apartment I recently purchased. What began as an exciting project of renovation, a fresh start, a new lease on life, ended as a costly disaster. Tawny Day Lily looked like a drop of golden sunshine on the paint chip, but on the four walls of my bedroom it was a technicolor catastrophe, as was Dark Salmon, a cloying shade of pink, and Candied Yam, a sulfurous yellow that transformed my room into the girlish lair of a cheerleader. Tangerine Dream looked no better in my hallway, and the Citrus Blast of my pantry, when seen in conjunction with the Caramelized Orange of my kitchen, turned my front rooms into a fruit stand.

No one had mentioned to me what many consider a rule of thumb in choosing paint: find a color you like and then select one at least two shades lighter or, better yet, choose another color altogether, preferably white, or, better still, don’t choose and let someone more knowledgeable make the decision for you. When magnified on the wall, a square inch of Pumpkin Patch or Iguana Green becomes several square yards of fluorescent orange and radioactive malachite. The difference between the chips one selects from the “color preview palettes” on display in hardware stores and what one slaps onto the plasterboard is so extreme that the inexperienced homeowner chooses this unequivocally visual product blindly, sight unseen. As tangibly physical as paint is, we are not actually buying a bucket of latex and pigment but a far more fanciful literary product, an evocative name and a piece of paper no bigger than a bookmark, a type of phantasmal paint that we apply not with our brushes but with our imaginations, which rise to the bait of such arresting,

yet evanescent, two-word haikus as Bright Laughter, Butterfly Bush, Fleeting Fawn, and Pale Parsnip. Words, however, are a poor substitute for pigment. Strawberry Mousse and Pineapple Delight may be great for the taste buds, but they are hell on the eyes.

The vast selection of colors available in paint stores (I counted over 50 shades of pink, among them Pink Popsicle, Marshmallow Bunny, and Tickled Pink) complicates the homemaker’s task even further. Although the Inter-Society Color Council recognizes only 267 colors and, moreover, gives them such prosaic names as Reddish Orange, Very Light Green, and Dark Red, Pittsburgh Paint currently offers 1,800 colors and Benjamin Moore no less than 2,000—a mere fraction of the 14,000 the latter has produced since its inception in 1883. Such bewildering variety would challenge the taxonomical skills of even the most ingenious of Linnaeuses who, as it stands, has no tidy Latinate system to make order out of chaos but gives way to despairing giddiness, lapsing into free association. The muse of non-sequiturs inspires him to dream up such marginally descriptive epithets as Splish Splash, Pitter Patter, Golfer’s Tan, Pollination, Salted Shrimp, Old Pickup Truck Blue, Rubber Duckie, and Fuzzy Navel. The absence of established rules also creates nonsensical redundancies and contradictions; Surf Spray for Pratt and Lambert is pale yellow, while California Paint’s Tropical Surf is dark greenish-blue and Benjamin Moore’s Ocean Spray is white-green, just as Mission for Pratt is whitish-beige while Mission for California Paints is blackish-blue.

Before the late 19th century, no primordial paint Adam could christen a wall color a single name

because there were no stable paint species. Each professional house painter mixed his colors on the spot by eye (not by a predetermined recipe) and was therefore seldom, if ever, able to reproduce the exact same shade. In 1867, the first ready-made paint was patented, and in 1892, Benjamin Moore brought out a revolutionary powdered paint called Muresco, a kind of instant freeze-dried mix to which one simply added water and stirred. It was an exciting innovation heralded by interior decorators and contractors, even if it was available in an admittedly limited palette (namely, white). Only after World War II, with the rise of home ownership and suburbanization, did the average consumer succumb to the appeal of the do-it-yourself movement and begin to paint his walls himself, without the help of the professional painter. He was thus thrown into an unprecedented intimate relationship with paint manufacturers and retailers which, before World War II, had largely dealt with gruff contractors who knew precisely what they wanted and didn’t need to be seduced by the rhapsodic poetry of paint names. The de-professionalization of painting thus gave birth to a whole new literary genre: the lyrical if infantilized rhetoric with which companies began to captivate the novice, who insisted that paint products have enticing names, not just the numeric formulae printed on each chip.

A spectrum analysis of paint names yields a distinct vision of the consumer. For one, she is female, as can be seen in the preponderance of such stereotypically girlish colors as Ballet Slipper, Pink Fairy, Cinderella, Debutante Pink, Pussy Willow, and Light Chiffon. For another, the divisions between her senses are at best permeable. She perceives the world synesthetically through a euphoric haze, with sight collapsing into

taste and touch into smell. She not only sees colors, she hears them (Melodious Mauve, Green Melody), smells them (Citrus Sachet, Patchouli), feels them (Dusty Mink, Soft Satin), and tastes them (Tangy Taffy, Pizza Pie). In order to appeal to the consumer, paint manufacturers create colors that suggest a nearly mystical state of arousal, the sensual tempest stirred up by virtually all contemporary advertisers who sell products by instilling us with a false vision of the body, one afflicted with an almost neurasthenic sensitivity. Paint names quiver with an inexplicably voluptuous agitation, which we are meant to find contagious, so electric that our senses become unstable, clouded by the distortions of hype.

According to this anatomically incorrect vision of a body that responds to the world far more keenly than we really do, the primary organ for experiencing colors is not the optical nerve but the taste bud, which discerns in colors mouth-watering flavors, especially those that cause cavities: Orange Marmalade, Spice Cookie, Crème Brûlée, Toffee Crunch, and Belgian Waffle. Paint names are high in sugar, cholesterol, and empty calories, from Almond Cream and Applesauce Cake to Red Gumball and Lime Meringue. Although we live in an extremely visual culture, the paint-namer is often unable to describe hues without reference to food, whose representation poses far greater challenges to the advertiser, since taste cannot be conveyed through the available media, whereas colors lend themselves to television broadcasts and glossy magazines. Perhaps it is because of the very impossibility of capturing in words the flavor of an apple or, for that matter, of a gin and tonic, that the rhetoric of taste is far more advanced than the rhetoric of color, and

18 the paint manufacturer is forced to piggyback on a more mature commercial language developed by an industry that has had to overcome insurmountable obstacles to entice the consumer, who cannot yet taste the difference between a pixel and a Benday Dot, an audio frequency and a video signal. Perhaps also the ineloquence of publicity departments in the face of the color wheel reveals that a visual culture like ours has never really examined the assumptions that structure its experience of the world, or has come to rely so heavily on images that it has lost the ability to discuss them and has been reduced simply to evoking them, as if the mere act of their presentation were an adequate substitute for their description and analysis. Our eyes may have improved as we abandon words for special effects and computer graphics, but our tongues have become lazy.

Food names are also a convenient disguise for the very opposite of food: for the inedible, for Cobalt 2-Ethylhexanoate, Titanium Dioxide, 2-(2-Butoxyethoxy)-ethanol, and, of course, lead, all of which cause birth defects, cancer, mental retardation, sterility, silicosis, and damage to the liver, lungs, and central nervous system. It is not coincidental that paint manufacturers—the gourmets of scrumptious nomenclature—advise us to use their products in well-ventilated rooms, keep them out of the reach of small children, and seek immediate medical attention if swallowed, ironic precautions for a trade that names colors after things that are expressly designed to be swallowed, even devoured, as well as inhaled like the headiest of perfumes. The transformation of paint into an ersatz beverage, snack, or cologne is a way of banishing the specter

of the skull and crossbones, since the ultimate test of a substance’s harmlessness is our ability to ingest it. The spurious connection manufacturers make between the paint can and the dinner plate provides an abstract, literary antidote to a very concrete poison, which seems infinitely less virulent when it is likened, however rhetorically, to a Hot Toddy, a Crisp Won Ton, a Lime Tart, and a Sweet Honeydew Melon.

Toxicity wears another mask, the imaginary ingredient. Colors were once identified by the substances from which they were made: cochineal, a brilliant red pigment produced by pulverizing the bodies of thousands of cochineal insects, (parasites that live on cacti); azure from azurite, a blue copper ore first powdered and then washed in soap, gum, and lye; iris green, made from the sap of iris flowers thickened with alum; and saffron, from the golden yellow spice produced by grinding the dried stigmas of crocus flowers. Now, the paint manufacturer actively conceals the substances from which his colors are made. In fact, virtually no naturally occurring pigments are in use today. With only a handful of exceptions, colors are created in laboratories through the artificial combination of inorganic chemicals fused under abnormally high temperatures. It should come as no surprise that there is no sesame in Sesame, tarragon in Tarragon, or oregano in Oregano, just as there is no okra in Pickled Okra, pineapple in Pineapple Sage, or brandy in Brandied Pears. And yet paint companies still hark back to an age in which names identified a color’s primary ingredient, as if their product line had not been concocted in Pyrex flasks full of toxic catalytic agents bubbling over Bunsen burners, but plucked out of fields (Sunflower, Yellow Begonia), harvested

19


from trees (Fresh Peaches, Honey Maple), or fished out of the ocean (Pale Coral, Tropical Seaweed Green). Paint names are small white lies that suggest the pigment was found, not made, distilled from the leaves of geraniums and the pulp of papayas, a lyrical fib that at once allays consumer fears about toxins and elicits nostalgia for a lost bucolic world.Whether it is a bundle of palm fronds or a palisade of granite, the wall, which we have decorated for at least 9,000 years, chronicles the history of man’s fight against nature. This protective obstruction was once nature’s enemy, the barrier that sheltered us from elements we simultaneously feared and worshiped. It is now nature’s tombstone, a victory monument that shows how completely we have vanquished our environments, how we no longer fear them but view them instead as a source of recreation and refreshment, a luxurious spa in which to soothe frazzled nerves, a Sylvan Whimsey, a Sunlit Glade, a Sweet Meadow, a Green Pasture. The wall no longer excludes nature but rather brings the out-of-doors inside with us, where we live our lives amidst a color idyll, a pastoral of Prairie Winds, Summer Rains, Woodland Ferns, Spring Tulips, and Green Jungles. The wall is not a barricade but an imaginary window that has eliminated the division between outside and inside and repotted our gardens right in our kitchens and bedrooms, or, perhaps more accurately, built our kitchens and bedrooms smack on top of our flowerbeds.

With the rise of cities, the wall’s real enemy is not nature but other human beings who lead secretive lives on the opposite side, lives that are contiguous with ours but that we seldom see, that make their presence felt only by means of late-night quarrels,

the distasteful smells of cooking, creaking box springs, and the constant murmur of flushing toilets. Overcrowding and urbanization have given the wall new meaning. Ever since the first loose stone was piled on top of another, crude partitions have delineated property and thus served as architectural extensions of our sense of identity, a way of saying to our enemies “mine,” a deed of ownership we sign in bricks and mortar. As we are herded together by overpopulation and are forced to abandon the luxury of detached dwellings for small apartments, the architectural ramparts of our identities are besieged by the madding crowd, which would claim its share of the ever-dwindling space available in which to lead lives that have become more and more solitary the closer we live to each other. The poetry of paint names is based on a misanthropic aesthetic, one that pretends that our walls are not communal property, are not shared, that there is nothing behind them but the green sward, wide open spaces devoid of other people, vast horizons of Island Dawns, Arizona Sunsets, Big Skies, Mountain Forests, Pink Mesas, and Burning Sands. Paint provides us with a psychological barrier from our neighbors, a way of achieving a sense of self-containment and allowing our imaginations to revel in that most pressing desideratum of urban life—space, the empty clearings available for a song on the color preview palette.

In the Juicy Fruit world in which we live, our sense of wonder at color has diminished to a state of bored acceptance, the indifference of the chromatically privileged to their wealth. Color meant so much more to us when we lived in black and white rather than a harshly colorized world, when the purple reserved

20 for royalty was painstakingly made from millions of tiny droplets of ink excreted by shellfish, and when blue was produced from lapis lazuli imported at exorbitant cost from Persia, usually in order to paint the now oxidized robes of the Virgin Mary. In fact, ever since the Industrial Revolution made colors commonplace, we not only take color for granted but are somewhat suspicious of it, and associate garish clothing in particular with the “tastelessness” of the proletariat. Before pigment was mass-produced in factories, color was a luxury that only the well-to-do could afford, whereas peasants and workmen were forced to settle for various shades of brown—a color that is, not surprisingly, almost entirely absent from the medieval and early Renaissance painter’s palette. When the common people finally experienced their color liberation, the class associations of the spectrum were reversed, and upper- and middle-class men in particular frowned upon the proletariat’s unbridled experimentation with gaudy jackets and flashy cravats.

When I gasped in horror at the riot of colors that I had so mistakenly created in my rooms, I was in part responding to this snobbish prejudice against vibrant hues, to my undemocratic urge to tone down and mute my color scheme, opting for “tasteful” pastels that never draw attention to themselves, that fade, quite literally, into the woodwork. My fear of making embarrassing gaffes also stems from the association I make between bright colors and the marketplace, which, as Ruskin once libelously said of Whistler, dashes the paint pot in our faces, affronting us with acid-pink awnings and flashing neon signs. We mark the distinction between the public and private

world with stark color differences, retreating from the kaleidoscope of dots and pixels that assault us on the streets into the cozy banality of an unassuming palette.

But perhaps our preference for unassuming earth tones has an even deeper psychological origin. Our skittishness before the color excesses of consumerism may suggest a direct, if entirely unconscious, correlation between taste and camouflage, between our love of subdued tones and our fear of predators, our desire to blend into the foliage and become all but invisible. The display of bright colors is a key part of mating rituals, of the dalliances of birds that unfurl flamboyant plumage or lizards that inflate iridescent throats. Only when one is flirting, however, does one risk becoming such an easy target—and then only—in hopes of attracting a very special type of surprise attack, a fatal ambush by Cupid and his arrows. When I balked before the mess I had made of my walls, was I in some dark, forgotten corner of my mind, the reptilian brain that still resides in the swamps from which we emerged, reacting to the way I had violated my self-protective invisibility? Does the evolutionary basis of good taste lie not in self-expression, as we are taught to believe, but in self- negation, self-effacement, the eminently practical desire of the animal to survive in comfort in a lair that even the most sharp-eyed species, a step or two higher on the food chain, would be hard-pressed to spot amid the brambles from which it is deliberately indistinguishable?

Paint Names

Blog Post: How do Paint Colors Get Their Names?Jessica Roberts

Pick up any paint sample and look at the name. How do you react? Does it remind you of a distant memory or is it “What the heck where they thinking?!”

Paint color names also have a habit of being vague. Could you tell me what color family SW6707 Narcissus, SW6022 Breathless, or SW6521 Notable Hue would be found in? Here are the colors above; can you match them with the correct one? (*Answers at end of article)

From a linguist’s point-of-view, English only contains eleven basic color “labels” – red, blue, yellow, purple, green, orange, pink, white, black, and grey. There are obviously many ways to describe a color, but those are secondary describing words that are subjective and abstract. So, this brings us back to it: how do paint colors get their name?

Well, it looks like it all boils down to marketing a product. The names need to be memorable to leave an impression on the customer. Most paints have numbers to categorize them, but no one really stands in their home and rattles off that part of the paint name.

If you are standing at your local paint store and you see Socialite (a reddish purple hue) and you love having people over, you might pick that shade over River Rouge, which is very similar if you are undecided.

Apartment therapy did a poll on if people picked color based on the name. 54% said sometimes! Names play a big part in being able to sell the color.

To gain some insight on how one might pick out names for products, I asked copy editor Melody Alexander of Deep Group to give a quick and albeit simple run down. Here is what she had to say about names leaving the right impressions on consumers and the way she works:“When a company comes to my agency to name any product, we try to find the one thing that makes it stand apart from the competition. As a copywriter, my job is to dig deep to come up with ideas that show a deeper meaning. It might be a word that describes what it is in a different language. A god or goddess that symbolizes what it may be in some ancient culture. A word play that hints back to whatever the product is. Or, in this, it might be a playful name that subtly ties back to the color.

For example, if we’re given a bright yellow to name, I might come back with a list of 30 names that includes Amarillo (Spanish for yellow), Helios (the personification of the sun in Greek mythology), or Duckie for a playful name.

In any case, we’ll come back with a laundry list of name variations that our team finds best suit the project specifications. We make our recommendations, but it the decision ultimately comes down to our clients, and what it is they want.”

In the end, the paint companies are marketing a product to consumers. They have to be careful not to use a name twice or duplicate a competitor’s, while creating a memorable impression. It is no wonder the names range from vague to ridiculous. Just for fun, test more of your naming color power with this online game.

Paint Names

100 Colors, 100 Writings, 100 DaysRachel Berger

Every day for one hundred days (from October 30, 2008 to February 6, 2009) I picked a paint chip out of a bag and responded to it with a short writing. I have selected my favorite forty, titling each writing with the number of the day it was written (out of 100) and the name of the color from that day’s paint chip. This project was generated in Michael Bierut’s 100 Day Workshop at the Yale School of Art.

03 Island CoralWhen my father came East to visit me, he wanted to take a day trip to a state he’d never seen. “How about Delaware?” he said. We settled on Rhode Island. “I’m looking forward to being on Rhode Island,” he said. “It isn’t an island, Dad.” “No?”

04 Winter CocoaElection Day two days away, and I’m too nervous not to be superstitious. Is this paint chip telling me we’ll be inaugurating a black man in January? I stare at it, stroke its matte surface, absently stick it halfway into my sleeve. My sweatshirt is nearly the same color, a warmer grey than I realized.

06 Bee PollenAt some point in childhood, we start having memories, born of experience and not of photographs or family lore. Before I had memories, our attic had a wasp nest. It was discovered and fumigated but not removed. My first memories are of buzzing, of lying awake at night in terror, of the wasps that had surely returned.

07 LipstickWhat’s the difference between Sarah Palin and the next vice president of the United States? Lipstick.

08 Candied YamsI bought my first yam this week. I wanted sweet potatoes, which sound a bit friendlier, but the store didn’t have any. The yam is quite rooty, forever looking freshly pulled from the earth — something that is born, grows, and dies in darkness. It’s bumping around my cupboard now, rolling into view when I take out the sugar canister, tin of anchovies.

It’s clumsy and bulky. I rudely shove it back, out of my way, further into the darkness.

09 Castle MoatAt some point during college, a curious sidebar article appeared in the Daily News. I clipped it, filed it, and never found it again. A sad fate for the clipping, but well-suited to the content: Campus police found a six-foot-tall marijuana plant growing in the dry ornamental moat surrounding one of the dorms. It was destroyed.

11 Fresh GreensMy stepfather doesn’t like green food. Categorically, I’m pretty sure. Green: leaves of any kind, beans or peas, sprouts, stalks, things that come in stalks. He is liable to say “ew” to things that come in stalks, like he did when my friend Liz was over and sneezed at the dinner table. Vegetables. Fruit too. He’ll eat a banana if my mom slips one into his lunch pail, but his preferred fruit delivery system is a personal fruit pie, the kind that comes in white waxed paper and seems itself to be dipped in wax.

12 Springtime BloomConnecticut does fall pretty well, and this one has been no exception. Red-orange-brown-gold trees burning up the hills. Brisk days, mellow light. Crashing walks, I drag my feet to pulverize the fallen leaves. Today was the first that added a punishing wind, whirling up New Haven’s open alleys and across the Green, to the season. It is the first night where mention of spring seems cruel.

21 Pine GroveIan taught me that pine is a soft wood. “Use the nail test,” he said. “Test its hardness by pressing your

30 fingernail into it.” He taught me the phrase “cobbed up,” which he explained as using your desk to build a car. He taught me how to use a table saw.

23 Pale OrchidShe was the best reader in third grade. She knew it. We all knew it.

If we were lucky, we had a thing we were best at. Josh was the best swimmer. Michael was the best at math. Liora had the best clothes. I was the tallest. Being tallest meant I was often line leader, asked to reach things, mistaken for a fourth grader. But my superlative was born of dumb luck. Reading was a real skill. And I hated her for it.

She read in a smug, fluid sing-song, rarely bothered keying her inflection to aspects of the content, ignored most punctuation. Speed and precision were it. One afternoon, her turn came to read from a text about the tropical rainforest. “The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50 to 260 inches of rain falls yearly.” etc, etc. It poured out of her in an unrelenting cascade of perfect. “Some of the better-known epiphytes include ferns, lichens, mosses, cacti, bromeliads, and orchids.” Wait, did she just say orCHids? The corners of my mouth turned up in a terrible, triumphant grimace. But it’s or-Kids. I mouthed the word. Meanwhile, she stumbled. She knew something had gone horribly wrong, but it was too late.

27 Billowy CloudsI’m flying today. PDX to JFK, via ATL. The unasked-for jag south means that the midday sun shines brightly

through the window of seat 26F. The man in 26D tells me to close the window shade, first halfway, then all the way. The sun is in his eyes. My favorite thing about flying, an unfavored activity, is the window, landing at night in a city spread out like dying embers, popping up above big cartoon clouds into the blue. Surely it is fate, to be staring at a color called billowy clouds even as my rumpled shade is pulled tight, blocking all sight of them.

30 Daffodil YellowMargarine. Or, more accurately, marge. My brother and I were furious when our mother tried to reintroduce butter to the dinner table. Was it like the chocolate milk in the fridge and the donuts on the counter, treats we gulped down sulkily — sweet reminders of our father’s fresh absence from the house? No, I think we just liked margarine. Fleischmann’s. It came in a white plastic tub with a translucent lid, perfect for storing leftover cranberry sauce or beads. Like its tub, marge was shiny and molded. A cheery, synthetic daffodil yellow. Compared to marge, butter was just a dumpy, boxy old thing. Always too hard or too soft, didn’t taste like much.

31 Warm EmbraceTake some of the warmth out of this, the dusty blushing rose of an old lady’s eye shadow, and this is a color I wear every day. I am wearing it now, and I wore it yesterday. Without the het-up pinkish hue, it’s grey. A shift from one overcooked meat to another, mutton to triangle roast. Tongue to chop.

32 Apple OrchardPeople love their Granny Smiths, eat them like meals.

31


They chomp and slosh around in there with such gusto, like it’s meat, like they’re horses, like someone might take it. I don’t. Granny Smiths have too much fight in them. I love a challenging fruit, but Granny Smiths are sour and hard, and the sound of someone biting into one gives me the chills.

38 Lemon TartFriday, I drank big cold gulps of red wine from a pint glass I’d covered loosely with plastic wrap and put in the fridge, not thinking so logically after Thanksgiving dinner last week. I drank a glass of water. I drank another glass of water. I drank a cocktail Julie made with Pimm’s, ginger ale, and a long lovely strip of lemon peel. When it was done, I sucked the peel and then left it at the bottom of my glass. I drank a whiskey and coke. I drank another whiskey and coke. I drank whiskey.

39 Par Four GreenWe went to Palm Springs every year of my life until Maurice died. He died there, that paradisiacal oasis in the living desert, where the streets are called Dinah Shore and Bob Hope and where the many branches of Bank of America are all irresistible shades of California modern, far away from his cold flat home on the Canadian prairie. When they could swing it, he and Cynthia rented a condo right on a golf course. Sometimes golf balls flew through the kitchen window, which I found terrifying and everyone else seemed to think hilarious and exhilarating. I hated those immaculate, hazardous lawns but loved the beds of snapdragons that lined them. When I heard Maurice was dead, my first thought was, At last! My grandfather has been fatally struck by a golf ball.

43 Almond CreamMy boss at the museum was a grannyish 30-year-old whose ill-fitting slacks gave her what she called “diaperbutt.” Her Subaru wagon had heated seats. “Do you want me to turn your butt on?” she’d say when she gave me rides home in the winter. Her husband was a chef, so she and I often ended up talking about food. She told me how hollandaise sauce was made. She told me that cooks love junk food. She liked her meat extremely rare, “Just introduce it to the flame,” she’d say to waiters, feeling sophisticated and hungry. She kept pounds of raw almonds in her desk. She had the most unbelievable skin.

47 Pageant SongMy mother wore a periwinkle dress to her second wedding. And her second husband wore a periwinkle tie. It was a casual, celebratory affair, heavy on beer and light on ceremony. As was only natural, my brother was thirsty. But he was not yet twenty-one, and the bartenders were strict. He became something of a cause célèbre for the more sympathetic friends and relatives. They shuttled pints to him as he complained about the situation. They didn’t know he’d come armed with a fifth of Jack Daniels, just in case. There is a picture of him from the day, huge smile, arms draped around the newlyweds, as near as he’s ever stood to his stepfather.

48 Moss LandingKen Kesey’s Sometimes a Great Notion opens with a description of the frightening, dripping, verdancy of Oregon. It continues for many pages, and it’s all true.

32 In Portland, moss grows on the roofs of the houses, ferns sprout from cracks in the sidewalk, even the best maintained streets and buildings are prone to sliding around during the dark wet winter. One time in college, I came home for a holiday, and there were huge gray mushrooms growing out of my bedroom carpet.

51 Mellow YellowIn seventh grade science class, we studied drugs. Hard drugs. We were each assigned a drug (mine was LSD). We zealously researched its scientific name (Lysergic acid diethylamide), type (semisynthetic psychedelic), solubility (fat), cultural reference (Huxley, Leary, Beatles), and most useful of all, street names (Acid, Window Pane, Electric Koolaid, Blotter, Doses, Tabs, Trips, Purple Haze, Sugar Cubes, Paper Mushrooms, Rainbows, Smilies, White Lightening, Mellow Yellow).

52 Glacial TintI’m stranded at my father’s house, what Joanna calls “the Greenway Inn,” on Greenway Avenue, way up in the West Hills. It snowed all night and is snowing now. Seven, ten, thirteen inches. Never in my life has it snowed this much in Portland. When I describe the white carnage to people in Connecticut and New York, they are not nearly impressed enough. They think Portland is like I think Denver is, snowy, cold, mountainous. I was shocked when I finally visited Denver and it was flat and sunny.

55 Treasure IsleA color like the banged up Pyrex bowl we got from Second-Hand Rose, the roadside junk store in northern Minnesota on the way back from the cabin

we rented a couple summers ago with Marc and Esther. The ladies at the checkout blessed us and wrapped the little bowl in five layers of newsprint. But the bowl is bluer. And white on the inside. Slightly translucent with a blue cast — the way some people like to describe skim milk.

56 Magic MomentFreshman year, Dan and I tutored at a local junior high school. A sophomore named Sascha coordinated the tutoring program. Each of us had a secret: Dan was fulfilling the community service requirement of the MIP he’d picked up in Denver over the summer. I was in love with Dan. Sascha, who walked us over to the school each week, was covered in terrible bruises. She had shiners, a swollen lip, purple welts on her arms. Some days, she had a slight limp. She never mentioned it. This continued through the fall. Dan and I grew worried but didn’t know how to ask, didn’t ask. After winter break, Sascha quit the program, Dan had done his hours, my ardor was cooling. I never saw Sascha again. Julie knew her a bit. They were on the rugby team together.

57 Cool MelonOnly three times in its hundred-year history has the Crayola company changed the name of a crayon. Prussian Blue became Midnight Blue in 1958 and Indian Red was renamed Chestnut in 1999, both in response to requests from educators. In 1962, the company voluntarily changed Flesh to Peach, partially in response to the U.S. Civil Rights Movement.

61 Watermelon PinkIn certain Brooklyn bars, many liquors come infused: Thai chili-infused vodka, vanilla bean-infused rum,

33


candied ginger-infused bourbon. This is a pricy inversion of a trick from high school, where we infused many things with cheap liquor: whiskey-infused Diet Pepsi, grain alcohol-infused Jell-O, and the classic vodka watermelon.

Watermelons were most often treated this way on car camping trips out the Sandy River or down to Bend, wherever there was a stream to sit by and an afternoon to kill. The boys would hack a watermelon in half, float it in the icy water to cool off, and dump in half a handle of Dubra or Bukoff or Kumchatka. The melon’s heavy pink flesh could take a fantastic amount of additional liquid. By the time the melon was cold, the alcohol had trickled to every sweet cell. We used spoons if we had them. I still love watermelon, but I can’t stand vodka.

62 Freesia PurpleSonia had dry, mousy hair and big bright eyes. She wore boots with pointy toes, tight stonewashed jeans, and pale ribbed turtlenecks. She was one of the tall girls of junior high, so we shared a moderate sense of sisterhood and played on the same basketball team. But she was boy crazy and rode horses and always looked startled. She wore makeup. She took dance instead of gym. Sonia was girly. I thought my tallness put dancing and horses and boys out-of-reach. I was too mortified to experiment with applying pastels and open, innocent expressions to my face, choosing instead to be ironic and good at math.

64 Shoreline GreenI wore a silk teal suit at my Bat Mitzvah. From Ann Taylor. The shoulder pads were between the lining and the shell, so if I’d wanted to take them out — I

didn’t — I couldn’t. If Hillary Clinton had had a Bat Mitzvah, I like to think it’s what she would have worn. That powdery greeny-blue, if there had been a giant Tiffany’s box on the bima, it would have looked like it sired me.

65 Sweet TruffleThe other great suit of my young adulthood was the debate suit. It was chocolate brown. Under it, I wore a pale blue polyester button-down with a wonderfully wide collar. I left the shirt’s top three buttons open between rounds and only two open during a debate. I walked from classroom to classroom in brown Birkenstock clogs, taking bigger, bolder strides than the skirt was built to accommodate. The slit ripped again and again, no matter how much my mom reinforced it.

66 Lady LuckThis paint chip smells a bit like money. I wonder if they all smell that way.

68 Mermaid TreasureThis color reminds me of my mother. It’s not anything like the color of her eyes, which are brown. She had a blue car once, a 1986 Toyota Celica, but it was a pale-steely blue. She doesn’t wear lots of blue, prefers warm colors. She doesn’t swim much, in pools or at the ocean. We didn’t have plates or mugs or a tablecloth this color. I look at — look into — this flat deep aqua color and think of her and don’t know why.

70 CloudlessI’m on a bus to Washington DC to see Sarah. It has poured cold rain the whole way and feels as if we’re

34 driving through clouds, some kind of nightmare natural no-touch carwash. She keeps calling to ask me where we are, but I can’t see the road signs.

72 Cool AloeIn sixth grade, I grew six inches and my complexion went all to hell. In the basketball team photo, I tower over the others, my eyes and chin glowing fiery red. Trying to be helpful, my mother took me to the Clinique counter. There, a woman in a sexy lab coat asked me a series of questions and diagnosed me with combination skin. My mother bought everything the woman prescribed: a bar of anti-blemish soap, spot-treatment gel with salicylic acid, liquid foundation, powder, blush, eye shadow, lip gloss, lipstick, all of it packed in elegant pale green boxes, each sized precisely to house the tube inside.

75 Climbing IvyENDOWMENT FALLS 25 PERCENTHeadline, Yale Daily News

80 Clover BrookIn the fall of 2006, spinach was implicated in a deadly E. coli outbreak. According to the FDA’s final report on the outbreak, more than 200 people got sick and three people died. Bagged spinach was pulled from grocery store shelves. People who hated the nutrient-rich green felt justified, even smug. People who fed it to their children to make them grow up healthy and strong felt betrayed. In the end, the bacteria was traced to cattle manure found on pastures surrounding a spinach field in Salinas Valley, California.

81 Exotic BloomMy parents didn’t hire a photographer for my Bat

Mitzvah. Our neighbor, Chuck Saxe, offered to do it. Chuck was a software engineer at Tektronix and an amateur shutterbug. He arrived at the party toting two cameras, four lenses, a tripod and flash. We encouraged him to grab a bite before he got to work. Minutes later, Chuck was quite sure he’d been poisoned by the edible flower in the dinner salad and went immediately home to bed. His wife Harriet left with him, the poor woman had to haul all that gear.

84 Straw HatI think I lived in a room, or maybe a whole apartment, painted this color. Is this the color of Julie’s apartment? My sense of recognition is as strong as my sense of disorientation. I don’t like this color, but I know this color, have awakened to this color, watched the sun crawl over it, nailed a picture hanger into it.

87 Desert SunriseGrandma Cynthia made a thousand paintings of the Palm Springs desert, the blooming, living scrub edging the mountains beyond the golf course. Early in the morning, before Grandpa Maurice lumbered out onto the green for the first game of the day, she drove into the desert, away from the chilly dew coming off the swimming pools, from the orderly roadbeds of bougainvillea clumped around a single palm, from Gerald Ford Drive, to take the pictures that would become paintings. She wasn’t one of the heroic, romantic landscape painters, in wind and sun, her canvas lashed to the hard earth. Painting was done in the studio, surrounded by treasured views of a hot, alien land.

92 Liquid BlueLast night, the liquid was gray and white and brown and black and cold. It was below and it was above.

35


It tore the sole off one of my boots and soaked through two thick jackets. It tricked me. It pushed me around. This morning, the liquid is solid. And more treacherous still.

96 Autumn ArrivalIn my second grade class picture, I am the only girl in pants. But it’s not like I dressed down. My pants are pale orange and white checked, a daring compliment to my shirt, which is a rayon button-down with pictures of the planets on it. I stand out from the crowd: tall and skinny, a sandy bowl cut, orange pants.

97 Tropical HolidayComing back to New Haven on the first off-peak train of the morning. The doors open at Westport. It’s snowing lightly. The computer is warm on my lap, but the blue cast of the screen makes me realize I’m cold. Someone has written OBESE VAGINA in permanent marker on the wall next to my seat.

Are Posh Paints Really Worth It?Lesley Gillilan

Heritage palette: paints and emulsions from the likes of Fired Earth and Farrow & Ball can bring the colours of a bygone era to your home

They may be curious and expensive, but as ‘paint anorak’ Kevin McCloud tells Lesley Gillilan, there is good reason for the popularity of heritage colours

The trend for so-called “heritage” paint collections has been around long enough to be deemed tired, or even tiresome. Yet our appetite for the paint finishes of yesteryear - the evoked Georgian colours, the chalky emulsions and oily eggshells, the curious names (Arsenic, Drab, Baby’s Breath, Dead Salmon) - seems healthier than ever.

Farrow & Ball, or “F&B”, now sells more paint in a week than it did in a year during the early days of its long-standing National Trust partnership (which ended a year ago). And this is despite a crowd of rival companies now serving up pots of posh paint.

Aside from Fired Earth (which has ditched its V&A archive collection in favour of a “balanced” traditional-modern palette developed by Kevin McCloud), there are paint ranges by Sanderson, Zoffany and Designer’s Guild. There are niche-market “designer” paints, with Cath Kidston and Kelly Hoppen among those to put their names to colour charts.

“Boutique paint-maker” Little Greene has enough faith in the longevity of the historic paint trend to launch a range of “truly authenticated historical paint colours” in association with English Heritage. Researched and developed by historian Patrick Baty, Little Greene’s “Colours of England” collection offers a spectrum of 60 period shades from Georgian to post-war. They

include Shrimp and Orange Aurora (from the 1950s), Middle Brown (“a British Standard paint colour of the 1930s”) and, from the Regency palette, Blue Verditer (“an English colour … found during analysis of the entrance hall of Kenwood House, London”). The coverage of each paint in the range (matt emulsion, flat oil, limewash, distemper) is said to be “excellent”.

But does the 21st-century home really need a palette of 19th-century shades? And, irrespective of its provenance, is this, or any other specialist brand really worth the extra money? With the average price hovering at about £22 for 2.5 litres of emulsion, wouldn’t it make more sense to slap on the B&Q, or get Dulux to whip up a copy-cat shade? A 2.5-litre pot from B&Q’s Colours range costs a mere £9.98.McCloud, a self-confessed paint “anorak”, is unequivocal in his defence of posh paints. “Having used many, many different brands over the years, it is very clear to me that the more you pay, the better the paint,” he says. “Cheap paint has more water in it, less pigment and less binder.” Thus, as a rule, the more expensive paint covers better and lasts longer. It is also more environment-friendly, being lower in “Volatile Organic Compounds”.

There is a place for cheap paint, and McCloud concedes he has painted his own kitchen in “bog ordinary trade white emulsion”, but the cheaper paints are made with synthetic pigments. And pigment, he explains, is what gives paint its quality and depth of colour.

“Traditional pigments tend to be made of rocks and minerals, earth and clay,” he says. “And consequently they are impure, and rather complex. The more complex the pigmentation, the more interesting the

colour. It gives redolence and depth, and you get undertones - colours which subtly change in different lights.”

The range he created for Fired Earth is “traditionally pigmented” but, as he points out, “the colours are not historical. And they are not meant to be”. In fact, he is sceptical about the justification for using simulated historic colours. “Unless it’s for a Grade I listed house, with a particularly important story attached to its paint colours, it’s a lot of hogwash,” he says. “One can say that this was a colour used in this particular house, on a certain day in, say, 1818, but the colour has probably faded, or gone darker, or yellowed. It’s very difficult to ascribe a particular nuance of colour to a room for a particular date.”Paint finishes are something else. F&B, who are keen to call their paints “traditional” rather than historic, have used the same basic recipes since the 1930s (and still produce distempers and even lead paints for grade I and grade II listed buildings). But to describe Sugar Bag Light as “like the blue of paper used for lining drawers in the late 18th century” is hardly a claim for historical accuracy. The English Heritage range, however, gets as close as it can to authentic period shades.

“English Heritage wanted a comprehensively researched palette of paints,” says Baty, who runs Paper and Paints in Chelsea. Claiming genuine provenance, they are designed to suit appropriate period houses, but it’s okay to mix Georgian and Victorian in a 1930s semi. “What people do with these paints is entirely up to them,” he says. “Choosing paint is like tasting wine, perfume or anything else which relies on sensory perception - it’s an individual choice.”

And what a bewildering choice. “We are besieged by brands and rafts of new technologies,” agrees McCloud. “There are paints for decking, paints for fencing, paint for the furniture, another one for the shed. But what it boils down to, is do you like the colour?” And if you don’t, it’s not exactly a disaster. McCloud says that even at the high end of the price spectrum, “it’s still the cheapest way to introduce colour into the home”.

How to find just the right shade • Compare prices and products online at www.

choosingpaint.com which supplies paints from Farrow & Ball, Fired Earth, Little Greene, Sanderson, Paint Library, Designers Guild and Zoffany, as well as American imports Devine and Colortrend’s Historic Colour Collection.

• If you know the colour, but don’t know where to find it, Papers and Paints in Chelsea (4, Park Walk London SW10), will colour-match almost anything from a flake of old paint to a silk scarf. Or call them on 020 7352 8626.

• The Little Greene Paint Company (www.thelittlegreene.com; 0161 230 0880) has pledged a donation to English Heritage for every pot of Colours of England paint sold. Buyers are entitled to two-for-one entry to some English Heritage properties.

• Fashion plays a big part in our colour choice. For three years of the 1990s, Farrow & Ball’s best-selling colour was Sudbury Yellow. Now, usurped by a more popular blue-green palette, it doesn’t even feature in its top 30. Reds sell better in the winter, and yellow is predicted to make a comeback.

1900s

20th Century Colour Trends/Palettes

In the early part of the 19th century, women were getting their first taste of emancipation, and though it didn’t last long, it did have an influence on colour ¬– primarily as evidenced by female undergarments. Lingerie began showing up in opalised pinks and pale pinky- beige tones, marking he beginning of romantic, sexy colours used in underwear fashion, which had previously been seen as purely utilitarian. Women began using cosmetics, too, and the first blushes of rouge became popular. Face powders took on a tint for the first time and were available in a variety of colours to match complexions.

Until the beginning of World War I in 1914, light colours were popular – light green, pale blue and what was called “swooning” mauve. During this time, colours were often differentiated as city colours and the more utilitarian country colours, which included a lot of brown and tan.

The Art Nouveau movement had a tremendous influence on colour and iridescence, as did the

invention of the electric light bulb. Simply put, colour usage changed because electric lights illuminated colour and one could see it better than under gas light.

There was a bright explosion of colour brought on by the popularity of the Ballet Russe. Similarly, the Fauvists – using shades of scarlet and apple green caused a colour explosion of their own. The Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists indulged in floral hues of yellow, orange, teal, periwinkle, violet, rust and of course green, which ultimately influenced the colours of interior design and clothing for the wealthy.

During the war, colour all but disappeared. Colourful clothing still existed, but it was difficult to obtain and was available only if one was willing to pay the hefty prices.

1920s

The lingering effects of the war could be felt in the early 1920s as evidenced by the prevalence of subdued colours- partly due to the high cost of dyes and colourful clothing during the late 1910s and partly a reaction against all the bright colours that were so popular in the mid- 1910s.

In the 1920s, women enjoyed more freedom than ever before and the timing couldn’t be more perfect for French fashion designer Coco Chanel to debut on the fashion scene. Her designs influenced fashion, notable for her unique blend of minimal, modern thinking. Colours in the Chanel palette, which spread throughout the world in all facets of design, defines the minimalist palette and includes beige, taupe, grey and black.

An entire range of pale colours was also dominant including celery, pale pink, lavender, powder blue, and light green. Simultaneously, a lot of glitter came

into play and the Art Deco movement, which had a huge influence on colour, ushered in a lot of bronze, chrome, steel and glass.

Despite the popularity of minimalist colours and metallic shades, bright colour didn’t totally disappear in the 1920s. Colour was used, but used sparingly and typically softer shades prevailed. Bright colour took on the Japanese-born tradition of being used occasionally as a spot or accent colour.

1930s

When we think of the 1930s, colours of the Great Depression come to mind – sombre grey, black and brown. But this palette was really only prominent in the early part of the decade – 1930 to 1931 – when bleak colours reflected the impact of the economic reality. Between 1932 and 1933, the pendulum swung back and the opposite of dark colours, which became a total absence of colour – white – became popular because of its association with sunshine.

In fact, it was during this time that people began pursuing suntans in order to get that “healthy” look. White was the colour that best showed off a good tan. The trend carried into interior decorating, too. Suddenly, against popular convention, trendsetters decorated interiors with all white, white-on-white themes.

White cars – prominent among the wealthy – debuted in the decade in startling contrast to the black automobiles which were the norm.

White also evolved in to the popularity of off-whites, ivories and soft pastels, never more evident in the movies of the era that boasted platinum bombshell Jean Harlow undulating in satin sinuous gowns of those colours.

Gilding, seen on furniture legs and figurines, was also started in the ‘30s.

Ultimately, however, one can only experience so much white before the need for colour began creeping back into the palette. By the mid-‘30s, lots of colours were used, most notably in unusual and complex combinations. For instance periwinkle blues were shown with taupe or brown and Dijon yellows were combined with charcoal grey. Many of the colour palettes were borrowed from the great ocean liners of the era with their sumptuous décor, which was notable for its complex colour palettes.

The era saw the first suggestions of a cocktail dress with the introduction of the chic little black dress. The 1930s is also known for the debut of shocking pink.

In all, it was an era of bountiful colour use and experimentation. “In those compressed ten years, a lot happened with colour. It is the decade between two very important events – the Depression and World War II”, says Leatrice Eiseman, director, Pantone Colour Institute. Had it not been for the war, the decade “would have sparked a lot more colour invention.”

76

1940s

For the most part, colours in the 1940s took on a dusted quality, as dyestuffs were increasingly hard to get during the war years and the dyes that were more available were largely composed of grey. Gray, itself, was prevalent in light and dark shades, while colours like yellow, orange, mauve, navy, and green appeared chalky, muted, and unsaturated. However, the decade didn’t start out this way.

Going into the forties, colours were bright; cherry red lipsticks accented lively colours of hues of pink and yellow. But, as the war escalated, colours began to lose their vitality since the bulk of dyes, which were manufactured in Germany, were not available. Ultimately, French fashion designers came to the rescue, making fashion statements out of the colours that were abundant – olive, khaki, navy, and black.

Moreover, because dyestuffs were rationed and the availability of textiles was limited, the style and lines of clothing changed, too. Skirts became shorter and

clothing became slimmer and more tailored – out of necessity – to minimize the fabric required.

As the war dragged on, the only place one would see colour was in the hand knit caps, gloves, and sweaters that were made on the home front from leftover clothing. Drab military uniforms and civilian fashions were often accented with spots of “home-made” colour. Of course, throughout the war, cosmetics were considered a morale booster, and shades of pink and red, the latter for lips and nails, continued to be popular throughout the decade.

Naturally, throughout the war, a country’s colours signalled patriotism and the brighter the better. In the U.S., shades of vibrant red , white and blue were prevalent.

By the latter part of the decade, colour made a comeback in-of all things- “resort” clothing. The thinking was that summertime clothing was less

expensive, so wild, vibrant colours were less of a fashion and investment risk. Popular tropical colours ranged from tangerine and yellow to vibrant teal, fuchsia, and purple to true blue and turquoise. The advent of these colours paved the way for the colour palette of the 1950s.

78

1950s

Men went back to work after the war years and women returned to the home, bringing about an onslaught of femininity in all things as increasingly more products and services were marketed to women as homemakers: home appliances, cars and fashion. Pink, almost universally regarded as the epitome of femininity was a popular colour, but its significance went much deeper than aesthetics after the war weary, rationed, and subdued decade of the forties. After so much deprivation in everything, including colour, pink’s bright liveliness signified optimism and came to represent what the decade of the 1950s was all about.

Pink appeared in numerous variations – from peachy-pink to pale pink, medium pink, powder pink and cool pink. Shocking pink, popular in the 1930s, made a come back in a new incarnation: hot pink and cosmetic companies like Revlon ran advertising featuring the entire product range in hot pink.

“Think pink” became a catch phrase and even Hollywood turned pink, featuring an entire scene in the motion picture Funny Face, starring Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn, in that shade. When pink needed a partner turquoise blue rose to the occasion as its perfect compliment – the colours were all part of a trend toward pastelling, and appeared in everything including two-toned cars such as Studebakers and Nash Ramblers. Other light cheery shades gaining momentum in the 1950s colour palette include pistachio and bright yellow.

Amid a rainbow of pastels, black re-emerged as an influential colour; it became chic to wear black and it appeared once again as the black cocktail dress and as skinny Capri slacks that looked great when accented with brightly coloured tops. Technology was making more vibrantly coloured dyes possible, and the decade saw the beginning of fluorescent colours. Lime green was introduced in the 1950s.

This introduction was followed by other bright colours – born out of the beginnings of Rock’n’Roll – yellow, raspberry, fuchsia, purple, teal, and Kelly green.

Orange was also seen for the first time – and marked the first indication of the psychedelic era that was to

come in the 1960s.

80

1960s

There was an explosion of colour in the 1960s due to new technology that made a range of dyestuffs available to the masses. This innovation, coupled with an entire new range of synthetic fabrics and a renewed interest in cotton fabrics that took dye well., fuelled the public’s fascination with colour that went beyond textiles and finishes to creating unique colour combinations in everything from snow boots to raincoats.

Coloured pantyhose debuted to compliment mini-skirts, and the two appeared in a variety of combinations. Fashion designers Pucci and Mary Quant led this trend, and the result was that colour appeared everywhere; items that had previously been black, khaki or nude, burst onto the scene in never-before seen shades of red, blue, yellow and green.

During the late 1960s, the popularity of the ethnic look inspired colour combinations in all walks of life. Blue jeans were paired with Indian tops that sported a riot of colours.

Colourful peasant jewellery, bead-work , and macramé plant hangers and belts were popular. Women started lining their eyes with kohl pencils. The ethnic look gave the masses permission to do things that were widely innovative, and the trend took its colour cue from African, Oriental and Indian clothing, arts and crafts.

Meanwhile, the music scene and drug culture brought about the psychedelic era with a fluorescent explosion of colour: blue, lime green, vibrant yellow, fluorescent orange, fluorescent red, fluorescent pink and violet and magenta.

Late in the decade, orange and varying shades of golden yellow generated a stir after appearing on the cover of the Beatles’ album Yellow Submarine. These warm shades ranged from goldenrod and orange to golden yellow, and varying hues of pumpkin. This seldom seen colour palette rapidly became popular with interior designers. By the early 1970s, these shades could be seen in the best homes with the latest décor.

1970s

The seventies introduced the ecology movement and the populace turned to earth tones – partly out of their concern for the environment and partly because people were visually exhausted by the frenetic colour usage that marked the sixties.

At the same time, technological advancements made even more pigments and dyestuffs available, opening the arena to even more colour possibilities. This time, the advances impacts men as much as much as previous innovations had influenced women. Men gave up their white business shirts and for the first time started wearing coloured shirts with co-ordinating ties. Soft earthy desert-inspired colours inspired by the Californian lifestyle and climate were also prominent.

However, if one colour palette marked the decade, it was that of earth tones, which are remembered today mostly for their use in kitchens, where small ad large appliances were given industry standard names that

seventies homeowners shudder at today: avocado, harvest gold and burnt orange.

As the decade wore on, the colours got deeper, and included bronze as well as various shades of brown and russet, deep red and dark blue.

1980s

By the 1980s, the buying public had had their fill of earth tones ad the colours were no longer selling – in anything – clothing or appliances. New colour palettes emerged, but splintered into to two groups: Those favouring mauve, teal, and grey, which quickly became the principal neutral colour of the decade: and those who leaned toward the Nordic influence, a palette featuring an array of cool blues and blue greens.

These colours remained popular until the mid-eighties – when people had been mauved, tealed, and greyed to death and demanded new colours. It seemed that the lifecycle of colour palettes was decreasing.

During this time, the women’s movement was on the rise and fashion was all over the place – skirts were long and short; women sopped following fashion edicts and wore what looked best on them. The trend carried into colour as well and people thought of colour palettes in terms of what they liked. The

result was a backlash on the idea of a person being colour-printed, a trend that gained prominence in the seventies and pigeon-holed a person as a particular “season”, which in turn determined what colours they should wear. Instead, consumers began recognising the psychological aspects of colour.

The was less dogma and more freedom and colour choices were now based on the question: How does it make you feel?

Arising out of this trend was the popularity of colour born of the American West (also called Santa Fe colours) and those inspired by the film Out of Africa – namely peach, pink and coral, turquoise, sand, ivory and lavender.

These colours, previously thought to be exclusively feminine, permeated into men’s fashion and accessorise as well, a trend that was globalised in such television shows as Miami Vice, which

popularised the Florida look. During the mid-to late-1980s, men could be seen sporting colours they had never worn before.

Amid all the pastels, black made a resurgence. In the U.S., the Reagans were in the White House, and due in part of Nancy Reagan’s influence, the pair brought back the glamour of black. Black limousines and black taffeta defined grandeur and luxury.

Black’s new cache translated to interior design as well, where it came to be associated with the high-tech look. Chrome, steel and grey were accented with black to capture the newest look in modern, up-to-date kitchen technology. It became elegant to have a black phone again, which had not been popular since colour invaded the home in the 1950s and 1960s.

The popularity of Star Wars’ Darth Vader also had a lot to do with making black elegant and sexy and a new descriptive for black was born: tough chic.

86

1990s

Black was popular in the late 1980s and continued to be so into the nineties, but for other reasons. Now it was popular because the economy took a nosedive, and in such times, black tends to rise above other colours as the shade of preference. Bright colours also went away, while environmentalism was popularised. Beige, off-white and ivory gained favour for their no-colour look and perfectly showed-off natural cottons and showed up as white, almond, and stainless steel appliances.

But the decade was not without its hallmark colour. If one colour had to be chosen to define the decade it would be hunter green. Green was symbolic of nature and even the word green entered into our speech patterns – in phraseology that harkened to the environment and ecology as a whole.

By the middle part of the decade, the economy started to spike, so colour came back into public life in full force. While colours had never disappeared

entirely, they had become less saturated, and now they re-emerged with a different hue. Between 1995 and 1997, yellow-green, chartreuse, and lime green debuted in plastics and in clothing. Brights came back in every colour form from yellow, orange and red to violet, periwinkle, and pink. During this time, green appeared in numerous incarnations and remained popular, as did black, which never lost its power and showed no signs of disappearing.

As the turn of the century approached, a new colour appeared on the scene that was to become associated with the year 2000. It was a shade aptly named millennium blue, a hue, which was forecasted to be the colour that would define the early twenty-first century.

Paint Names Articles

The Poetry of Paint: As the Names Make It Clear, You No Longer Buy A Gallon of Paint; You Buy A Life-Shaping Experience Lori Borgman

I bought a gallon of paint recently. If this current trend in naming paints continues, hardware stores will need to bring in upholstered chairs and designer coffee bars. You can’t be sure if you’re reading paint chips or free verse.

Gone are the days of Ivory, Pink, and Peach. You can find something along the lines of peach all right, but it will be Peach Burst, Peach Fuzz, Peach Slush, or Peachy Keen, not plain old Peach.

A lot of your paints have taken on two names: Summer Bliss, Mussel Shell, Morning Fog, Twilight Sky, Shoreline Tan, Beach Umbrella, and Midsummer’s Breeze. At times, you can’t be sure whether you are purchasing paint or a timeshare on the coast.

The names make it clear that the science of paint has evolved. You no longer simply buy a gallon of paint; you buy an entire life-shaping paint experience: Sand Between Your Toes, Midnight Bonfire, Bed ‘n Breakfast, Spring Romance, Evening in Paradise, and Still Night. All that and a free wooden stir stick.

Some of the paint names sound like book titles of cheesy novels.

La Fonda Moss Rose: The matriarch of the Fonda family is determined to build a shelter for wayward girls but soon finds herself singing on top of a player piano in a Wild West saloon to pay the rent.

New England Brown: A secretive history professor with worn elbow-patch jackets, a mind for detail, and an eye for the ladies brings more than Ivy League scholarship to a small town in Maine.

Canyon Echo: A man and his horse, fleeing the ghosts of a painful past, seek solace, but inadvertently find danger, excitement, and adventure in untamed Arizona.

Even the enticing storybook names for paint won’t be enough someday. Paint companies will have to up the ante by having microchips with sound bites attached to paint chips describing the nuances of the hue; the history of the name; the healing qualities of the color; and what the different finishes can do for blood pressure, stress, and insomnia.

The South is vastly overrepresented in paint names, with the likes of Southern Mist, Southern Vine, Southern Breeze, and Southern Surf. The rest of the country doesn’t get a fraction of the paint names the South does, and the shame of it is they are totally nondescript. Who knows what color Southern Breeze is?

They should use names people have a ready handle on, like: Southern Fried Chicken (golden brown), Southern Pecan Pie (golden brown), and Southern Biscuits (golden brown). There are at least 15 golden browns in every paint line, and any good restaurant in the South should be able to provide names for at least a dozen of them.

You should also know that the longer the name of the paint--Gray Timber Wolf, Fire on the Mountain, Morgan Hill Gold, Icing on the Cake--the more it will cost you.

I was looking for a strong yet dignified yellow and had narrowed the search to Caribbean Canary, Dandelion Wish, Four-star Sorbet, and a few others.

275


I was feeling pretty heady about my cultured and sophisticated choices. I asked the young man mixing paint what shade he thought the elegant Elizabethan Yellow looked like.

“Mustard,” he said.

276 Death by Chocolate: What a way to go! Just one of the best names — and best paint colors — recommended by House Beautiful designers.

Emotional“I think it’s funny they named this EMOTIONAL, because color in general is so emotional — scientists are always doing these studies about what a red room or a blue room does to you. This is a brick orange that feels energetic, confident, and protective — no mental health therapy required here! I thought this small coatroom needed a strong color to make it an individual space of its own, not just an afterthought. It seemed slightly risky to use it, which might be why I liked it so much.” -Thomas JayneSHERWIN-WILLIAMS EMOTIONAL SW6621

Dorian Gray“Remember how Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Gray never got old? Neither does this color. I use it again and again whenever I want atmosphere. DORIAN GRAY is the palest blue-gray you can imagine, soft and subtle, like a mist. You hardly notice it’s a color at all. Dreamy in a bedroom — there’s nothing jarring about it, and you can mix any color with it.” -Whitney StewartC2 PAINT DORIAN GRAY C2-478

Milkshake“This is a warm taupe — the color a chocolate milk shake turns once you’ve stirred in the whipped cream. MILK SHAKE brings back fond memories — drive-in movies, football games, cheerleading, double dates, the prom — when there were only three channels on the TV! A chocolate shake after school

— well, there was never a second thought back then.” -Charlotte MossBENJAMIN MOORE MILK SHAKE 1165

Going to the Chapel“Even though I’m known for a soft neutral palette, I keep getting hired by people who love color. I can do both, and I explain it like this: I am married to beige, but I have affairs with color. GOING TO THE CHAPEL is just like a marriage — comfortable, livable, with just a hint of gray. Actually, that sort of describes my husband. A super-neutral, safe color you can stay with for a long time.” -Phoebe HowardBENJAMIN MOORE GOING TO THE CHAPEL 1527

Sweet Caroline“SWEET CAROLINE...Da-da-dah. Bet you’re already singing the old Neil Diamond song. I’m a Southern guy, and it takes me back to summer days in the convertible with the radio playing. Cute name, but it’s a sophisticated color — a crisp, pale green with a gray undertone. It makes everything else in the room come alive.” -David MitchellBENJAMIN MOORE SWEET CAROLINE 478

Mouse’s Back“I probably shouldn’t admit this, but sometimes when it’s down to two or three colors and I can’t decide, the one with the best name wins. I love MOUSE’S BACK, not that I have a thing for rodents, but behind the odd name is the most amazing brownish olive-gray. Mellow it out with creams and dark browns or kick it up with teal or burnt orange.” -Jeff AndrewsFARROW & BALL MOUSE’S BACK 40

Get Back Jack“GET BACK JACK sounds sorta Sammy Davis Las Vegas 1970s, which is fabulous enough in its own right. But the color — the deepest of purples with just enough red to give it some oomph — is quite elegant, and would be perfect in a dining room, lacquered, with lots of white trim and maybe a silver-leafed ceiling. Sammy would be snapping his fingers!” -Ken FulkC2 PAINT GET BACK JACK C2-002

Final Straw“The most amusing names are in the C2 fan deck, probably made up by the same stoner guys who named Ben and Jerry’s ice cream flavors. Some of my favorites are Yellow Submarine, Twilight Zone, and FINAL STRAW. With each piece of news these days, we’re all feeling like it’s the final straw! Nice to find one that’s actually sunny, happy, golden. Reminds me of warm, inviting classical rooms where beautiful people live with handsome furniture and nobody is worried about anything except decorating.” -DD AllenC2 PAINT FINAL STRAW C2-380

Death by Chocolate“This is like the best chocolate that you buy for yourself and save for those intense moments. Just knowing it’s in the house can get you through the day. DEATH BY CHOCOLATE is deeper than ordinary browns — just beneath the surface is a shimmer of pomegranate that swiftly dispenses with reason. It’s wicked. It’s passionate. If you aren’t too shy to leave the light on, this is the paint for you.” -Mallory MarshallC2 PAINT DEATH BY CHOCOLATE C2-339

Chilled Chardonnay“Just like a luscious glass of its namesake, CHILLED CHARDONNAY has broad appeal. It’s relaxing and refreshing. Think of that clear, crisp sparkle. I could use a glass right now! This is a tawny beige — great for showcasing other colors. It would look very smart with gray flannel, blue-and-white chintz, or shocking pink chenille. A great no-stress color to use throughout the house.” -Susan Zises GreenBENJAMIN MOORE CHILLED CHARDONNAY 1089

Dead Salmon“As a fisherman and a foodie, I always have nice thoughts about DEAD SALMON. I see a salmon resting in my creel or on my plate in a neighborhood restaurant. Clients, on the other hand, often can’t get past the image of a dead fish, so I just don’t tell them the name. But they love the color. It’s like a pink that’s gone gray over time and taken on this wonderful patina. Moody and gorgeous.” -Philip GorrivanFARROW & BALL DEAD SALMON 28

Come Sail Away“Who doesn’t want to accept an invitation to COME SAIL AWAY, even if only in a freshly painted room? This is what water looks like when the sun hits it — a wonderful soft blue that isn’t too chilly, thanks to a drop of green. It would be perfect with pure white trim, khaki slipcovers, and sea grass rugs for summer. It would also give a front-porch ceiling, or any ceiling, an ethereal, sky-like quality.” -Todd KleinBENJAMIN MOORE COME SAIL AWAY 846

Paint Names that Speak to the SoulCheryl P. Allen

There’s poetry in paint color names: Why choose plain old blue when you can choose a Beckoning Sea, why just see red when you can see Lava Flow or why settle for green when you can be surrounded by Lily Pond?

These days, names for paint colors are anything but generic. Consumers are faced with a rainbow of options that beckon to all the senses. Some inspire relaxation (Morning Zen, Heaven’s Wind, Fresh Cotton). Others pay homage to nature (Snow Storm, Golden Sunset, Winding River). Still others whet the appetite (Pumpkin Bread, Roasted Garlic).

“Painting continues to be the top home-improvement project because it’s an easy, inexpensive way to update a room,” says Jaclyn Pardini, a spokeswoman for Lowe’s. “And we want to find paint names that provide inspiration.”

How else can you explain names like Evening Twilight, Daydream Haze and Juniper Breeze?

Color trends for 2010 will focus on earth tones and nature-inspired neutrals, interspersed with rich and brighter accent hues in shades of red, purple and yellow.“People are much more introspective about color this year and will be painting in a way that not only is aesthetically pleasing but also saturates the senses,” says Donna Schroeder, color marketing and design manager with Martin Senour Paints.The economy is a primary factor, say color marketing and design experts.

“With the economy being so bad and people feeling so down and low,” says Melissa Putt, marketing

director for paints and coatings for Georgia-based Plaid Enterprises Inc., a manufacturer and distributor of craft and home-decor products, “oftentimes, it’s just the right timing for bringing a little bit of brightness and optimism.”

Also, color experts may take their cues from trends in fashion, design and pop culture, Putt says, citing a line of pastels Plaid developed last year, called Charleston Charm.“It was inspired by things that we were seeing . . . a lot of subtle pastels . . . and it got us thinking about the South . . . and once we decided that Charleston Charm would be the umbrella theme for this group of colors, we made the color names go with that.” The palette includes colors such as Sawgrass, a soft gray-green, and Belle Blush, a soft pink.

Some of the paint-naming process is subjective, but often there’s quite a bit of research involved, experts say.

“We turn to color-forecasting organizations and their Web sites to see what they are talking about on a broader scale,” Putt says. “We look at different things and then we kind of translate what we’ve learned into color palettes and color families that would be good for our business, which, of course, is to appeal to the craft market.”

Lowe’s has a new, 261-color palette aimed at do-it-yourselfers. Colors such as Carolina Sky, a light dreamy blue, and Green Tea Latte, a light green, are designed to inspire meditation and relaxation in areas such as a master suite, Pardini says.

279


Paint names also help consumers take more ownership of their decor, especially when they can describe it accurately or even humorously, says Jackie L. Jordan, director of color marketing for Sherwin-Williams.

“I think people gravitate to color names that speak to them on a personal level,” Jordan says. Among Sherwin-Williams choices, for example, are: Butter Up, Knockout Orange and Sassy Green.

Absurd Paint Color NamesLori Sawaya

Ever wonder what the people who choose color names are thinking? Some names are absurd and they give no clue what the actual paint color resembles. Truth of the matter is we want paint color names to not only give us a hint about what the color looks like, but to also help us remember it after we have seen it.

In tandem with seeing the color as a sample or a chip, we need a logical name to go with it. A name that is mainstream so most people will understand it. We rely on practical linguistics of color so we can make better mental notes. Our color memories are short. Seconds after we have seen a color, we can remember the hue but the finer details of nuance and character begin to fade almost instantly. It happens to all of us — even the best trained colorists and most expert-y of color experts.

I suppose creative paint color names add a twist of interest to an otherwise mundane item of necessity like paint for your home. However, if the paint color name is too abstract, you have to wonder if the novelty of the name becomes overshadowed by its sheer randomness or complex provenance.

In this video, a rather convincing case is made against Farrow & Ball’s choice of color names. What do you think? Are cute color names fun? Or, are they counterproductive and make matters worse in the already confusing process of choosing paint colors?

The Mahogany door opened and I beheld the Marquess of Dimity’s butler, Old White, beckoning me into Pointing Hall.

Everyone was there: Freddie Fowler-Pink and Jock Ball-Green from the club, Hardwick White, the architectural historian, Jemima Sutcliffe-Green, the celebrated milliner, Dix Blue, the mangrove magnate from Florida, and even disgraced pop star Saxon Green and his glamorous wife, the aptly named Folly.

True to her name, Folly Green was already hooting with laughter as she balanced her champagne glasses with the help of the glamorous Yellow sisters, India and Ciara. The soft pad of Slipper Satin behind me alerted me to the presence of the object of my affections, Hermione Green-Stone, dressed all in Powder Blue. ‘Care for an Olive?’ I enquired.

‘As long as you haven’t sprinkled Arsenic on it,’ she said with a scowl and, eyeing my Blazer. ‘I thought it was White Tie.’

Talking of Arsenic, I have to say that at that moment some Pale Powder would not have gone amiss. ‘Who cares?’ I replied. ‘This is a New White dress shirt anyway. And I must say, you look simply ravishing.’

‘Fawn, Fawn, Fawn,’ Hermione retorted. ‘I must say you look a little Drab yourself. Like a Dead Salmon. And stop staring at Ciara Yellow.’

Hermione was such a metropolitan sophistocate, always so cruel – a heart of London Stone.

I was about to respond when Lord Dimity’s distinctive bellow interrupted us.

‘Why is this Card Room Green?’ he was raging at his housekeeper, Mrs Cord. ‘Why is the Lamp Room Gray? And the Entrance Hall – Pink?’ Dimity was a great one for redecorating, and was notorious for changing his mind with regard to his interior decorations. ‘The Book Room Red? I stipulated no such thing. And why on earth is the Breakfast Room Green?’ he bellowed at the hapless Mrs Cord, whose expression was fixed like Setting Plaster.

At the moment a footman shimmied past with the makings of an apple crumble for Monsieur Vert de Terre the chef.

‘Give me a Cooking Apple, Green,’ Dimity commanded. ‘And is that Sugar Bag Light? No? Well, give me that, too, or I will beat you Black Blue,’ raged the beastly man. The footman assented. ‘And why is Sudbury Yellow?’ he enquired pointing to a particularly jaundiced-looking Flemish housemaid in the corner. ‘An apple crumble will cure her,’ he cried, preparing to throw the ingredients at the poor girl, and her Dutch Pink face quivered with fear.

Fortunately the girl was saved because Old White announced dinner. ‘Come, my little Babouche,’ Dimity murmured to India Yellow, ‘let us go in.’

Smoked Trout with Radicchion and Citron garnish was on the menu, folloed by Berrington Blue pork loin and then Dorset Cream with Biscuit.

‘This tastes like Calamine,’ whispered Hermione, tasting the cream, and indeed the dinner had not been a success. At one point Green Smoke had even emerged from the kitchen, and various morsels had

326 been thrown out of the window and so into the Down Pipe.

A strange evening became stranger when a carrier Pigeon suddenly appeared, fluttering through the window and landing by the Wainscot. It had a piece of String tied to its leg, and a note.

‘Why is the Eating Room Red?’ it read. ‘This betokens much blood,’ muttered Old White ominously from the corner, fiddling with the Tallow which was now his main responsibility. Dimity’s visage Shaded White, moving to All White. ‘Quickly, to the Archive!’ he commanded, running from the room, followed my the entire party. Then Dimity changed his mind. ‘No, to the Card Room! Green – lead the way!’

We ran down another corridor. ‘To the Orangery!’ Dimity announced. Out through the Loggia we ran, past the Monkey Puzzle tree and along by the Railings. Dimity’s Pale Hound, Brinjal, ran by his master’s side. Emerging from the south front, the Ball Green stretched out in front of us, as smooth as a Mouse’s Back under the Pitch Blue night sky. ‘That is Teresa’s Green,’ Dimity mused wistfully, referring to the unusual female groundkeeper he employed at the hall. But he quickly gathered his wits and we were away, running across the Green Ground, clambering across the Stony Ground, sliding across the Pink Ground – well, actually there was no Pink Ground. But we soon emerged panting on to the Sand by the shore, Lichen clothing the Green Stone all around. An unusual site for an Orangery, it had to be admitted.

The Orangery was in fact the site of Dimity’s pioneering maritime Menagerie, including all kinds of rarities: a Berrington Blue Flamingo, for example,

and numerous fish in a vast tank. The Borrowed Light from the Skylight above made the water shimmer. Something Off White was visible on the bottom of the tank. Bone! And something larger moving in the water.

‘Oh, it’s a Dauphin!’ cooed Freddie Fowler-Pink. ‘You mean dolphin, Freddie,’ I said patiently. ‘And that’s no dolphin. That’s a Great White shark, and it’s out for blood – our blood!’

The creature reared up out of the tank and -- Clunch! -- Landed on the floor of the Menagerie. The assembled guests surveyed the Savage Ground as the shark thrashed about in its death throes. I prodded it with my Cane. It was dead. Dimity maintained he had no idea how the Great White had come to be there. I stood transfixed as the other guests departed, the scent of Straw in my nostrils, an intimation of the larger mammals Dimity kept in his Orangery-Menagerie.

I must have stood there for a long time – until at length I felt hot breath on my neck. ‘Oh Hermione, Hermione, at last!’ I whispered, turning around.

But alas, it was not Hermione Green-Stone’s breath that I had felt. It was Elephant’s Breath. I flush Porphyry Pink, but thankfully no one was there to see, least of all Hermione.

Pantone Colour of the Year

Pantone’s Color of the Year Is... Cathy Horyn

AT least one color authority, Pantone, has taken the plunge and announced its favorite color for 2008. To be sure, this news doesn’t seem as delectable as People’s Sexiest Man Alive or as snugly affirming as Time’s Person of the Year. You probably did not even know that chili pepper red was the color for 2007.

Pantone Timeline - A New Year, A New Color.Every year the Pantone Color Institute chooses a color of the year. Click through a timeline of Pantone’s color of the year from 2000 to the present.

Nonetheless, Pantone’s choice of blue iris, or No. 18-3943, got some news media attention last week, which seemed to be partly the objective of the company, which is based in Carlstadt, N.J. In a statement, Leatrice Eiseman, the executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, said: “Blue Iris brings together the dependable aspects of blue, underscored by a strong, soul-searching purple cast. Emotionally, it is anchoring and meditative with a touch of magic.”

Later, in a telephone interview, Ms. Eiseman said the selection process had been very thoughtful, based on various influences, and that indeed the final choice reflected a “need for thoughtfulness.” Five individuals were involved in the selection process. “With blue iris, we felt that it answered several needs, hopes, desires, that kind of thing,” she said.

If that strikes you as hazy, you’re not alone. “It’s a little bit on the funny side,” said Micha Riss, the creative director of Flying Machine, a branding and design firm in New York, whose clients include ESPN and Sky

Italia. “I respect Pantone a lot, but I see them as a technical service. If Helmut Lang were to make such a projection, I would listen.”

Mr. Lang is, alas, no longer making clothes. Still, designers of his caliber tend to avoid such industrial predictions, on the ground that it leaves them less room to exert their particular influence. After all, where would the world be without Miuccia Prada’s beautification of ugly brown, Tom Ford’s elevation of candy-floss lilac? If a fashion label can be said to own a color, then shocking pink belongs to Schiaparelli. Red is to Valentino what orange is to Tide.

The higher-ups in fashion tend to profess a horror of predictions, anyway. It’s so prosaic, like In and Out lists. As Alber Elbaz, the designer at Lanvin, characterized the shortcomings of forecasts, in a call to his Paris office: “We think we can read ‘How to Become a Millionaire’ or ‘Find a Gorgeous Husband in Three Weeks,’ but a book is a book is a book. We have to go with intuition.” He said forecasts are for the mass market, for retailers and manufacturers who want to be sure they have enough blue sweaters in stock next winter.

Pantone provides standardized palettes for a number of industries, mainly graphics, fashion textiles and interior design. Not surprisingly, Pantone’s competitors in the area of forecasting are skeptical of its choice, if not the motive behind it.

“It’s very good for publicity, and it certainly shows a lot of bravado,” said Margaret Walch, the director of the Color Association, a forecasting group founded

357


in 1915, when the vast majority of its members were milliners, glove makers and hosiery suppliers. Because consumer tastes and values are under a variety of influences — economic, environmental, global — anointing one color isn’t all that meaningful, she said. Is there a color she might have picked instead? Ms. Walch laughed lightly, as if to say, “O.K., I’ll play along.” She answered, “My color for 2008 is bamboo.” A yellowed green, chosen from the association’s interior palette, she said, it “represents the stable green that is most on people’s minds.” She said it’s similar to a hue called Vineyard, adding: “I feel it just has a power. You know, these are very insecure times.”

Before you have a complete freak-out and crawl into your bamboo-colored hole to await the purple dawn, let’s pause and consider a few things. There has indeed been a surge of blue on the runways in the last year, beginning last February with Raf Simons’s dresses and pantsuits, in an Yves Klein blue, for Jil Sander and extending into the spring 2008 collections with Nicolas Ghesquiere’s explosive floral prints for Balenciaga. Mr. Elbaz used a deep lagoon blue in his spring Lanvin show, and one found lighter but no less robust shades in collections by Marni and Chloé, and in the men’s lines of Prada and Alexander McQueen. Dolce & Gabbana called its new fragrance Light Blue. And JWT, the advertising and marketing company, just named blue as one of the top 10 trends for 2008, saying that “blue is the new green,” particularly as it denotes ecological concerns.

“I’m thrilled,” Terron Schaefer, senior vice president of marketing at Saks Fifth Avenue, said of the blue news. This fall, Mr. Schaefer worked with an

Amsterdam-based designer, Pete Paris, on new shopping bags for the spring. As it happens, the bags have a large element of a watery blue.

Ms. Eiseman of the Color Institute said she gathers information from various sources, including trade shows like the influential Milan furniture fair. From a marketing standpoint, there’s plenty of reason to think that blue may have eclipsed green.

“I think green is being abused to death,” said Regis Pean, creative director of Studio Red, a branding and design division of the Rockwell Group, which works with companies like Coca-Cola, McDonald’s and Procter & Gamble. “Everybody wants to be green.” (Notably, Barneys New York, which is promoting a “green Christmas.”) For educated consumers, Mr. Pean said, the overuse of green in marketing is increasingly a turn-off.

There is no doubt that color influences consumer choices, whether it’s as durable as a Tiffany blue box, as sharp and crystal clear as an Apple store, or as seasonal (and socially attuned) as Gap’s Red campaign.

“What if Coke decided to become green?” said Leslie Singer, the president and chief creative officer of G2 Branding & Design. Well, for one thing, the public would lose a prime visual signpost in the supermarket. “Color drives the way you navigate through a store,” Mr. Pean said, pointing out that stores employ what’s called an r and K strategy, based on a mathematical equation. Either they flood an aisle with a block of color or they go for selective, standout placement.

358 As Ms. Singer points out, heritage brands like Coke and Burberry aren’t really affected by color forecasts. They already have a look and a palette: why confuse matters? For fashion designers the concerns are different. Mr. Elbaz says a color can look one way in a swatch, another in a bolt of cloth, and still another when you cut into it. “There are three stages and each is different,” said Mr. Elbaz, who finds that some of his best colors come from cosmetics — “because they’ve been tested on the face.”

Paradoxically, fashion may not be as responsible for stimulating interest in color as other creative fields — architecture, furniture design and technology. “In the fashion business, we’re a bit dead at the moment because we sold out to bling,” said David Shah, a clothing maker and a forecaster based in Amsterdam, whose View publishing company produces magazines on color and retail trends (including one for Pantone). “The architects and the furniture designers are the new sexy ones.”

Nonetheless, all these creative forces, along with a desire to have more humor, will feed demand for color, Mr. Shah predicted. “Color is now seen as an item of luxury,” he said. Yes, like an orange Hermès box, or a once-humble box of chocolates.

362 Pantone Pronounces this Sky Blue as the Hue of the Future

The official color of the millennium is Cerulean Blue PANTONE 15-4020 TC, the color of the sky on a serene, crystal clear day, says Pantone, Inc., the world’s leading authority on color and color trends.

Lifestyle movements suggest that consumers will be seeking inner peace and spiritual fulfillment in the new millennium. This is a paradoxical time in which we are heading toward an uncertain, yet exciting, future, and also looking back, trying to hold onto the security of the past. In this stressful, high-tech era, we will be searching for solace and Cerulean Blue produces the perfect calming effect.

“Psychologically, gazing at a blue sky brings a sense of peace and tranquillity to the human spirit,” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Sky blue is imprinted in our psyches as a retiring, quiescent color. Surrounding yourself with Cerulean blue could bring on a certain peace because it reminds you of time spent outdoors, on a beach, near the water - associations with restful, peaceful, relaxing times. In addition, it makes the unknown a little less frightening because the sky, which is a presence in our lives every day, is a constant and is always there. That’s the dependability factor of blue.”

“Our studies show that blue is the leading favorite color for designers and consumers worldwide, regardless of culture, gender or geographic origin,” says Lisa Herbert, vice president, corporate


communications worldwide, Pantone, Inc. “Not only is it a favorite in the U.S., but it is the first color choice in Europe and Asia as well. We’ve chosen Cerulean Blue as the official color for the millennium because of its mass appeal. It is a universal, unisex color, applicable to just about every consumer product including women’s, men’s and children’s fashions, interior design and home furnishings, cosmetics and even automobiles.”

Physiologically, the viewing of blue reduces blood pressure, heartbeat and respiration rate and creates a calming effect.

Socio-ecologically, as we enter the next century, water issues are emerging at the forefront of the public’s consciousness. Exhausting our natural resources and polluting our environment, particularly our water supply, continues to be a concern, another reason for the popularity of blue for the future.

“Whether expressing danger, celebration, love or passion, red will not be ignored,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “In 2007, there is an awareness of the melding of diverse cultural influences, and Chili Pepper is a reflection of exotic tastes both on the tongue and to the eye. Nothing reflects the spirit of adventure more than the color red. At the same time, Chili Pepper speaks to a certain level of confidence and taste. Incorporating this color into your wardrobe and living space adds drama and excitement, as it stimulates the senses.”

Pantone, Inc., the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries, selected PANTONE 18-3943 Blue Iris, a beautifully balanced blue-purple, as the color of the year for 2008.

“From a color forecasting perspective, we have chosen PANTONE 18-3943 Blue Iris as the color of the year, as it best represents color direction in 2008 for fashion, cosmetics and home products,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “As a reflection of the times, Blue Iris brings together the dependable aspect of blue, underscored by a strong, soul-searching purple cast. Emotionally, it is anchoring and meditative with a touch of magic. Look for it artfully combined with deeper plums, red-browns, yellow-greens, grapes and grays.”

“In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of color,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “It is believed to be a protective talisman, a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association studies, we also find that Turquoise represents an escape to many – taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy.”

Pantone Reveals Color of the Year for 2011:Pantone 18-2120 Honeysuckle


Energizing Honeysuckle Lifts Spirits and Imparts Confidence to Meet Life’s Ongoing Challenges

Pantone LLC, an X-Rite company (NASDAQ: XRIT), and the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries, today announced PANTONE® 18-2120 Honeysuckle, a vibrant, energetic hue, as the color of the year for 2011.

While the 2010 color of the year, PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise, served as an escape for many, Honeysuckle emboldens us to face everyday troubles with verve and vigor. A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life.

“In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Honeysuckle derives its positive qualities from a powerful bond to its mother color red, the most physical, viscerally alive hue in the spectrum.”

Eiseman continues, “The intensity of this festive reddish pink allures and engages. In fact, this color, not the sweet fragrance of the flower blossoms for

which it was named, is what attracts hummingbirds to nectar. Honeysuckle may also bring a wave of nostalgia for its associated delicious scent reminiscent of the carefree days of spring and summer.”

Honeysuckle is guaranteed to produce a healthy glow when worn by both men and women. It’s a striking, eye-catching hue that works well for day and night in women’s apparel, accessories and cosmetics, and in men’s ties, shirts and sportswear. Add a lively flair to interior spaces with Honeysuckle patterned pillows, bedspreads, small appliances and tabletop accessories. Looking for an inexpensive way to perk up your home? Paint a wall in Honeysuckle for a dynamic burst of energy in the family room, kitchen or hallway.

Every year since the millennium Pantone Inc, the industry leader in colour, has announced a colour which they believe encapsulates the mood of the forthcoming year. 2010 was Turquoise, 2011 is Honeysuckle. Since 2007 Pantone has been making these predictions public, with press releases and online publicity, utilising the marketing opportunity it presents for the company.

The predictions are based on a number of factors including; consumer trends, global events, economic and politic influences. The colour is chosen by a select group of leading experts within the field of trend and colour forecasting. The colour of the year announcement is one of a number of colour predictions Pantone makes as part of its trend forecasting services, most of which are made two years ahead, as is the norm for the industry. The predictions are predominantly aimed as consumer goods manufacturers, including fashion and product designers and while colour trend predictions are just informed speculation one could argue that they are closer to self-fulfilling prophecies.

Turquoise was described as a colour that ‘transports us to an exciting, tropical paradise while offering a sense of protection and healing in stressful times Attaching meaning and imagery to colours through the use of language and association is common practise among colour manufacturers. Colour naming is often used to evoke aspirational ideas from commercial colours and make products appear more attractive to consumers. This tactic is particularly evident among paint manufacturers, when you buy a colour you buy into a lifestyle.

A Year in Colour

No matter which way you look at it, the notion of colour forecasting and defining a year with a colour, pales into insignificance when set against the struggles many people have faced on a daily basis over the past 12 months. 2010 was not Turquoise, it was splattered black with the oil spilt in the Gulf of Mexico, it was dusted grey with the ash from the Icelandic volcano and it was turned red by the blood of victims of the Haiti earthquake.

This project aims to highlight the inconsequentiality and frivolity of colour trends in light of the difficulties many face in the year ahead. Honeysuckle may ‘emboldens us to face everyday troubles with verve and vigor’ but it will not soften the impact of spending cuts or repair damage caused by natural disasters. It also aims to highlight how easily life-changing world events can be co-opted, repackaged and sold as concepts and ideas. Marketers mine many sources for the latest trend and naming concepts for their products. By reducing a natural disaster to a colour palette, it suddenly seems less threatening, almost safe enough to paint your dining room with.

A Year in Colour

Haitian Earthquake – Pantone 409 C captures the dark cloud that hangs over the future of many in Haiti. It may be the colour of the rubble from the collapsed buildings but it can never represent the loss of homes, businesses and lives that were destroyed by the earthquake.

On The 12th of January an earthquake, measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale, rocked the small island of Haiti. Over 300,000 people are believed to have died as the earthquake caused massive damage to the capital Port-au-Prince. Government buildings were destroyed and several officials were killed. The quake has left an estimated one million of Haiti’s nine million inhabitants homeless. An international aid operation was organised to try to rebuild the already desperately poor and war-torn country. However strong aftershocks, violence, lack of basic infrastructure and an outbreak of cholera have all hampered the relief effort, leaving the country still in a state of devastation a year later.

Snow

Snow – Pantone 2707 C evokes the icy temperatures that engulfed Britain during several months, leaving the country covered in a blanket of snow. This cool exterior hides the disruption caused by the weather and the arctic winds that caused it.

Britain suffered harsh winter weather conditions at both the start and end of 2010, causing widespread disruption. Heavy snow fell across the entire country in January, February, November and December, with

parts of the country seeing the earliest heavy snowfall for decades. There were record low temperatures of minus 19 recorded and the snowfall in the south east of England caused the closure of transport networks and airports, including Heathrow and Gatwick. The temperatures were caused by a distortion in the jet stream, which allowed icy Arctic winds to bring cold air down across North-western Europe.

Oil Spill

Oil Spill – Pantone 432 C reminds us of the dark, acrid smoke from the frames that engulfed the Deep Water Horizon platform and the oil that subsequently spilled from it. But it hides a dark secret, ecological damage to the region that may take years to repair.

On the 20th of April an explosion on BP’s Deep Water Horizon platform in the Gulf of Mexico caused the rig to catch fire, killing 11 workers. Although 98 people were subsequently rescued the fire was severe and the platform sank. The well the platform had been drilling was discovered to be leaking oil on the 22nd of April. By 30th April the spill covered an area of 3,850 square miles. After several failed attempts the well was finally capped and sealed on the 15th July, but by then it had leaked 4.9 million barrels of oil into the sea, becoming the worst environmental disaster in US history. Masses of oil from the spill washed up on the shorelines of Louisiana and Mississippi, damaging the region’s fishing and tourism industry and wreaking environmental devastation.

Haitian Earthquake

397


Ash Cloud – Pantone 7544 C this cool grey evokes the towering that drifted over Europe. It’s calm exterior masks the chaos caused by the grounding of aircraft and the ferociousness of the volcano’s eruption.

Air travel was significantly disrupted in April and again in May by the volcanic eruption of Mount Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland, which began on 14th April. The eruption itself was small, but it formed a gigantic cloud of ash, which rose nine kilometres into the sky. Atmospheric winds allowed the cloud to drift over large parts of mainland Europe resulting in a complete shutdown of the affected airspace for a period of five days. This was the biggest disruption in air travel since World War II as the high levels of silica in the cloud are highly damaging to aircraft engines, causing them to fail. The chaos caused by the cancellation of flights lead to thousands of travellers being stranded and losses of millions of pounds to the airline industry.

Coalition

Coalition – Pantone 534 C a political blue, the colour of the Conservative Party and their vision of The Big Society. But in this palette where is the yellow of the Liberal Democrats? That question has yet to be answered.

After weeks of campaigning by the three main political parties the people of Britain went to the polls for a General Election on May 6th. None of the parties

won the number of seats in parliament necessary to win an overall majority, resulting in a hung parliament. In the days following the result Gordon Brown resigned as the leader of the Labour Party and there was a brief attempt to create a Labour/Liberal Democrat coalition. However this was still not enough to create a majority. After several days of talks with the Liberal Democrats, David Cameron, the Leader of the Conservative party became the new Prime Minister and Leader of the first coalition government in the UK to directly result from an election.

World Cup

World Cup – Pantone 7404 C this vibrant hue captures the excitement and dynamism of the tournament and the colours of the host nation. It also reminds us of the colour of many of the much talked about vuvuzelas, made famous around the world by the event.

The 2010 World Cup opened on June 11 in Johannesburg in South Africa, the first time an African nation had hosted the finals. Thirty-two teams competed in 64 matches, to see Spain defeat the Netherlands 1-0 in extra time to win the tournament. England was knocked out in a 4-1 defeat by Germany in the second round, their worst performance in a World Cup. Overall the tournament was viewed as a success despite accusations beforehand that the government had evicted residents and cleared slums near to the stadiums in an attempt to ‘clean-up’ the areas.

Ash Cloud

398 Pakistan’s Flood – Pantone 417 C a murky grey, capturing the shade of the monsoon rains and flood water that engulfed the country. It also represents the dark cloud that now hangs over the country’ s economy and political leadership.

In July heavy monsoon rains caused extensive flooding in Pakistan. One fifth of the country’s land area was left underwater, affecting 20 million people, the worst flooding in the region for 80 years. Two thousand people were killed, but more devastating was the damage to millions of acres of crops, the loss of livestock, nearly 2 million houses and the damage to infrastructure. Relief was slow to arrive and much of the international aid money pledged did not arrive. Four million people were forced to drink unclean water, increasing exposure to waterbourne diseases and the lack of outside help has led to fears of the Taliban gaining influence in the country.

Pope’s Visit

Pope’s Visit – Pantone 656 C reflects peacefulness and the cool white of the Pope’s robes. It evokes a purity and holiness, but like the Church it cannot hide dark secrets forever.

The first Papal visit to Britain since 1982 saw Pope Benedict tour Britain for six days. The run up to the visit had been mired in controversy by claims that the Pope should not be given a state visit, calls for his arrest by Richard Dawkins for the his involvement in the coverage of child abuse in the Catholic Church and comments by a senior aide to the Pope

describing Britain as ‘like a third world country’. There were complaints about the cost to the UK taxpayer of security for the visit and that tickets to the open air masses were too expensive. Despite this thousands turned out to see the Pope as he visited London, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Birmingham.

Miner’s Rescue

Miner’s Rescue – Pantone 7576 C a warm hue, signifying the positive occasion and echoing the colour of the rescuer’s overalls, one of the first sights for the miners as they were brought to the surface. A sharp contrast to the darkness they had spent so many days in.

One of the biggest success stories of the year was the rescue of thirty-three miners who had been trapped underground for a record sixty-nine days, after an accident at their mine in Chile. The rescue mission was complex; drilling an escape tunnel through the hard rock took weeks, while the miners were put on a diet and fitness regime so that they would fit in the rescue capsule. It took twenty-two hours to winch all the miners to the surface, where they were greeted by the President of Chile and friends and relatives who had set up camp outside the mine.

like this shade, which reflects the shade of Kate Middleton’s dress and the blue of her sapphire engagement ring.

On the 16th of November it was announced that Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton were engaged after nine years together. The couple met whilst both studying at St Andrew’s University in Scotland. The announcement was televised and followed by an intimate interview with the couple. William used his mother, the late Princess Diana’s engagement ring for the proposal and Kate will become Princess Catherine. The couple will marry in April at Westminster Abbey and the day of the wedding is due to be a national bank holiday.

Student Riots

Student Riots – Pantone 158 C represents the anger and passion many students feel over the raising of tuition fees. What this fiery hue cannot tell us, much like the riots themselves is, who should pay and how.

On several occasions in November and December riots broke out among student demonstrators protesting against the tripling of tuition fees and the government cuts to university funding. A number of people were injured and protestors broke into the Conservative party headquarter, causing thousands of pounds worth of damage. On a separate occasion protestor hijacked and smashed a police vans, set a bus shelter on fire and hurled bottles at the car of Prince Charles and Camilla as they drove through central London. Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal

Democrats, angered students as he had promised not to raise tuition fees before the General Election. Despite the protests fees will rise to up to £9000 a year in 2012.

WikiLeaks

WikiLeaks – Pantone 7443 C has an air of transparency to it, echoing the transparency of governments WikiLeaks tried to enforce. But at the same time it represents a degree of opacity that surrounds the organisation and its founder Julian Assange.

WikiLeaks made the headlines on a number of occasions, releasing a video of a US army helicopter shooting civilians in Afghanistan in April. In July it then went on to release what has become know as the Afghan War Logs, a set of classified military documents about operations in Afghanistan, some of which suggest war crimes. It followed in November with the release of thousands of American diplomatic cables, revealing comments, which have embarrassed a number of high profile officials and leaders. WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange is currently under house arrest in England, fighting an extradition to Sweden where he is wanted for charges of sexual assault.

The Colours of the Year

Haitian Earthquake

Haitian EarthquakePantone® 409 C


On The 12th of January an earthquake, measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale, rocked the small island of Haiti. Over 300,000 people are believed to have died as the earthquake caused massive damage to the capital Port-au-Prince. Government buildings were destroyed and several officials were killed. The quake has left an estimated one million of Haiti’s nine million inhabitants homeless. An international aid operation was organised to try to rebuild the already desperately poor and war-torn country. However strong aftershocks, violence, lack of basic infrastructure and an outbreak of cholera have all hampered the relief effort, leaving the country still in a state of devastation a year later.

Haitian Earthquake – Pantone 409 C captures the dark cloud that hangs over the future of many in Haiti. It may be the colour of the rubble from the collapsed buildings but it can never represent the loss of homes, businesses and lives that were destroyed by the earthquake.

Ash Cloud

Ash CloudPantone® 7544 C



Air travel was significantly disrupted in April and again in May by the volcanic eruption of Mount Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland, which began on 14th April. The eruption itself was small, but it formed a gigantic cloud of ash, which rose nine kilometres into the sky. Atmospheric winds allowed the cloud to drift over large parts of mainland Europe resulting in a complete shutdown of the affected airspace for a period of five days. This was the biggest disruption in air travel since World War II as the high levels of silica in the cloud are highly damaging to aircraft engines, causing them to fail. The chaos caused by the cancellation of flights lead to thousands of travellers being stranded and losses of millions of pounds to the airline industry.

Ash Cloud – Pantone 7544 C this cool grey evokes the towering cloud that drifted over Europe. It’s calm exterior masks the chaos caused by the grounding of aircraft and the awesome power of the volcano’s eruption.

Pantone® Black 6 C Pantone® 431 C Pantone® 7451 C Pantone® 2766 C

After weeks of campaigning by the three main political parties the people of Britain went to the polls for a General Election on May 6th. None of the parties won the number of seats in parliament necessary to win an overall majority, resulting in a hung parliament. In the days following the result Gordon Brown resigned as the leader of the Labour Party and there was a brief attempt to create a Labour/Liberal Democrat coalition. However this was still not enough to create a majority. After several days of talks with the Liberal Democrats, David Cameron, the Leader of the Conservative party became the new Prime Minister and Leader of the first coalition government in the UK to directly result from an election.

Coalition – Pantone 534 C a political blue, the colour of the Conservative Party and their vision of The Big Society. But in this palette where is the yellow of the Liberal Democrats? That question has yet to be answered.

World Cup

World CupPantone® 7404 C


Pantone® 7730 C Pantone® Bright Red C

The 2010 World Cup opened on June 11th in Johannesburg in South Africa, the first time an African nation had hosted the finals. Thirty-two teams competed in 64 matches, to see Spain defeat the Netherlands 1-0 in extra time to win the tournament. England was knocked out in a 4-1 defeat by Germany in the second round, their worst performance in a World Cup. Overall the tournament was viewed as a success despite accusations beforehand that the government had evicted residents and cleared slums near to the stadiums in an attempt to ‘clean-up’ the areas.

World Cup – Pantone 7404 C this vibrant hue captures the excitement and dynamism of the tournament and the colours of the host nation. It also reminds us of the colour of many of the much talked about vuvuzelas, made famous around the world by the event.

406 After developing my ideas at the beginning of the term, I have been able to use all the different parts of Unit 2 as an opportunity to investigate ideas about colour, language and semiotics. My work into Unit 2.1 Elective A, Information Design and Unit 2.2 Elective B, Book Arts have allowed me to further explore ideas I have been studying in Design & Rhetoric, such as paint colours and creating colour palettes based on a theme or concept and also research about Pantone. Using the Electives to generate research and outputs that relate to my work for Design and Rhetoric has enabled me to investigate my ideas more thoroughly and to a greater depth. Although I cannot submit the same work for the Electives as Design and Rhetoric it has had the effect of supporting the development of my work, ideas and output for Design & Rhetoric and allowing me to conduct my research in a more holistic and cohesive way.

My output for Design and Rhetoric have strayed somewhat from the starting point of the investigation, The Semiotics of Paint Colours. However I believe that by touching on the ideas of trend forecasting and the role companies like Pantone play in creating trends and ideas around particular colours I have been able to look at the much wider concept of how colours and words are combined to influence our consumer choices. The increasing poeticism of paint names is but one aspect of the process of attaching aspirational or idealistic ideas to colours through the use of language, in order to make them more appealing to the consumer. This is not only the case with consumer paint colours, but also with cosmetics, textiles, ceramics, paper, and often, other products that are available in more than one colour-way.

Although I have spent time looking at the nature of paint names, as the project evolved, how culture and meaning is attached to a colour through a name; how colours acquire culture, became a more interesting direction to take, with more scope for potential outcomes. Having researched Pantone’s Colour of the Year announcements and trend forecasting in general, I felt that it was appropriate to use the Design and Rhetoric section of Unit 2 to comment on the insignificance and frivolity of fashion trends and colour forecasting when set against the natural disasters, political problems and economic struggles the world has faced in 2010.

Having reached this conclusion with the output of the unit it is clear that my work for Design and Rhetoric has not only moved away from my initial starting point but also from my Major Project Proposal. Despite this, they still relate to each other in terms of their starting point: how we talk about colour. The fundamental difference between the two, however, is the context. My work for Design and Rhetoric looks at the relationship between colour and language in a commercial context, where the agenda is to market and sell. The Major Project will look at colour and language in more of an everyday, real life context, where the agenda is usually to communicate and understand, as outlined in the proposal.

Despite the differences between the output for Design and Rhetoric and the Major Project Proposal there has been a significant amount of overlap in the research for the two parts of the unit, particularly in the background research and reading. Design and Rhetoric has also allowed me to test out

A Brief Evaluation of Unit 2.3 Design & Rhetoric

different methods of colour analysis, for example in Photoshop. Whilst some have been more effective than others, this has proved a useful exercise in preparation for the Major Project and increased my knowledge of suitable methodologies for it.

The methodology for the Design and Rhetoric output itself, is not as rigorous and objective as I would have preferred. However, despite being able to identify the type of data set that would be appropriate for the project, it proved far more difficult to locate a source of information that would be suitable, within the timescales of the project. As a result the data on which the outcome is based derives from the amalgamation of a number of sources, compromising my intended methodology. Consequently I feel that it is necessary to acknowledge, in this evaluation, that while the methodology for the output was flawed, it is an issue that I am aware of and intend to avoid during my Major Project.

I also feel that I should have spent, proportionately, more time producing formal studies which could have informed research for my Major Project. More time should also have been spent on developing the research I have done for Design & Rhetoric into ideas for an output. This may have lead to a more substantial and successful outcome for the project. I believe that there was potential for an interesting output that has not quite been realised to the same degree as other parts of the unit. However, much of the secondary research and reading completed in Unit 2 has provided essential background knowledge and built a strong base upon which to continue research for my Major Project.

Ultimately, with the detailed Action Plan and Schedule of work for my Major Project set out, I hope to allocate time to different activities more effectively to allow me to produce more successful outcomes for Unit 3.
