- Extracts and Rugged Individuals Palettes
These assortment of exotic colors, gets its spiciness from culinary inspirations. It is down to earth and comforting but disarmingly unexpected at the same time. The quiet presence of the dusty pink and baked clay goes well in complement with the tart and green banana. Imagine a late afternoon in the desert, with a pink sky slowly turning to violet then into a grayish night blue, with you sitting in your Adirondack chair admiring the vast view of the desert horizon from your garden oasis.

- Surface Treatments Palette
A highly textural combination of colors that draws from the ocean, land, and air. The stormy grays and the foamy whites act as bridges to the blues, metal browns, greens, and the lavender. This gives off a highly Mediterranean feel with a touch of the Orient. It is a refreshing palette, relaxing in feel, but does not lose in elegance and sophistication.
