I'd like to start by saluting Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute, for her yearly clinic of strategic writing that comes with the Color of the Year. She is truly the GOAT and I look forward to reading her 2024 press release. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming… Alex's World Cup fever has broken and he is on the mend. Kevin keeps losing his soccer bets but will not give up, nothing has really changed. The fellas discuss AI Portraits, The Pantone Color of the Year, Pink Sauce, the Newman's Own rebrand, MSCHF's Art Basel ATM Leaderboard, The Cheto Duster, Coca-Cola x Parade, MTN Dew Fruitquake, and more!

The Fall 2022 color trends are here and looking fabulous! Whether you're one to follow the trends or not, understanding what colors are on trend can help keep you in the style loop. According to Pantone, these colors reflect our hybridized lifestyles and support our need for nurturing and tactility, as well as a calm, reflective tone. Concurrently, the colors also illustrate our need to break free of restraint and embrace the joy of being alive through super bright hues expressing energy boosting vitality and the celebration of life. “Colors for Autumn/Winter 2022/2023 contrast our competing desires for calm and comfort with energy boosting vitality through a range of restful and restorative colors, in tandem with exuberant tones,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “As we move forward into an environment filled with contradiction, hues for Autumn/Winter 2022/2023 enable consumers to move fluidly between a range of contrasting shades, allowing them to spontaneously express who they are and how they feel on any given day.” Other Podcasts to Listen to: 105 The 7 Best Bargains to Score on Sale 106 How to Use Color to Shop The Colors on Trend for Fall/Winter 2022/23 1.

The Winning Hue Is Classic Too… When the Pantone Color Institute reveals its color of the year, accent walls everywhere transform, closets get refreshed, and the award-winning shade gets its year in the sun. As Pantone’s Executive Director, Leatrice Eiseman leads this process and is the go-to voice on color theory in the world. The 2020 hue, classic blue, was chosen for its power to instill calm and confidence reminiscent of the sky at night. It’s a refreshing reminder of the power color has on our daily lives and motivates us to surround ourselves with shades we connect with. Join Paula Wallace as she talks with Eiseman about classic blue, Pantone’s journey, and Eiseman’s inquisitive eye for the world around her.

Leatrice Eiseman talks color every day and will talk with us about the importance of color, the Pantone Color of the Year, and what she sees trending.

What does a Georgia O’Keefe painting OR the Weber Telescope have to do with the color of next year’s fashions? More than you might guess. As Louis Armstrong sings, we live in a wonderful, colorful world and my guest today likely knows more about color in our world than most anyone else in it. Leatrice Eiseman has been called “the international color guru.” She has authored ten books on color and continues to consult, train and influence in all things color. In her research, Lee has created word association lists for almost every color you can name, but if I had to choose just one word to associate with her, it would have to be fascinating. Truly, I could listen to Lee ALL day long—and actually I have—back in 2004 when I attended her 4-day Color & Design Course which changed my life (not even kidding.) Since my in-person experience with Lee I have surrounded myself with color and used it with confidence. I have been able to share what I know, how I know it and why it makes a difference. I’m so excited for you to listen to and learn from Lee. She talks about her childhood home, who has influenced her career and what she and other color experts do to forecast color trends. In her work with Pantone, Lee says, “It’s not that we’re reinventing colors all the time, but that we are inventing new color combinations!” Listen as she talks about seeing a full-page advertisement for Gudren Sjödén in The New Yorker magazine and how that confirmed her hunches about an emerging folklorico color story. Of course you’ll love listening to Lee talk about the selection of Classic Blue as the Pantone Color of the Year for 2020. Resources: If you’re looking for a comprehensive and user-friendly introduction you’ll find it in Lee’s book, Color Harmony. My personal favorites are The Color Answer Book and Colors For Your Every Mood. Lee notes that she was influenced early on by the work of Faber Birren. You can learn much more about Lee on her website, leatriceeiseman.com or by following her on Instagram @leatriceeiseman In addition to her Color & Design Course, Lee is also teaching online. Check out her More Alive With Color course. I opened today’s episode with What a Wonderful World sung by Louis Armstrong. Thank YOU for listening. Please consider leaving me a review on iTunes!

1 | LIVING CORAL EXPLAINED Unlike what many many initially think, no crystal balls are in use when Pantone selects the color of the year! They collect color information from street trends, fashion, retail, the runway, social media, and travel. Pantone carefully researches cultural shifts, political dynamics, and takes historical events into account. Groundbreaking stuff, huh? Vibrant yet mellow, Pantone describes Living Coral as “An animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge.” It is a color that is warm and nourishing. “[Living Coral provides] comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment.” Part of the reason they chose it is for its sociable and spirited qualities. It symbolizes optimism, the pursuit of joyful ventures, and encourages light-hearted activity. Pantone’s color choice in Living Coral directly relates to the “onslaught of digital technology and social media increasingly embedding into daily life…” This seems to be a recurring theme for Pantone, though not an irrelevant one. Living Coral embodies our need for playful expression. I see it as a very happy color. Do you agree with this? Pantone says, “Representing the fusion of modern life, PANTONE Living Coral is a nurturing color that appears in our natural surroundings…” I see it as a happy, beach-y color and it even reminds me of weddings, but I never associate this color with nature.  Pantone says that “Living Coral emits the desired, familiar, and energizing aspects of color found in nature.  In it’s glorious, yet unfortunately more elusive, display beneath the sea, this vivifying and effervescent color mesmerizes the eye and mind.” I guess that is technically nature. ;)    2 | HOW DOES LIVING CORAL INFLUENCE HOME DECOR IN 2019? My first slide with the oversized chairs shows how I would have traditionally imagined coral being used in the home. I see it being the perfect color for Southern Coastal homes. However, we are beginning to see it being used in fresh, modern ways. It still looks very sunny and cheerful. (See: Slide with coral, yellow, and green chairs.) I also see it as a smart, fluid evolution from Millennial Pink, which has been so popular over the last 2-3 years, which makes it a very commercial choice. It looks great in an Outdoor Patio space as well as soft textiles like drapery. The Navy or Indigo blues pair very well with coral. As do Teals. Exterior uses also look lovely, bringing vibrancy and personality to the outside of the home.    3 | CURRENT EVENTS THAT EVOKE THE COLOR LIVING CORAL Let’s recap some of the colossal current events that took place in 2017 and 2018.   IN 2017: President Trump was inaugurated Women’s March Jan 21, 2017 Brexit North Korea Escalation Self-Driving Cars Self-Learning A.I. Artificial Intelligence Las Vegas Shooting 58 dead 851 injured Wikipedia   IN 2018: International Women’s Day March for Our Lives Organized by survivors of the Parkland, Florida school shooting. Civic Engagement  Popularity in voting and importance of midterm elections. Lots of women were voted into Congress including the youngest woman ever to serve in Congress, the first Muslim women, and the first Native American women. The World Cup The Royal Wedding Nelson Mandela 100 July 18 marked 100 yrs since Nelson Mandela was born. Remembering: Aretha Franklin, Stephen Hawking, and Burt Reynolds.   IN POLITICS “Lying at the center of our naturally vivid and chromatic ecosystem, PANTONE Living Coral is evocative of how coral reefs provide shelter to a diverse kaleidoscope of color.” Do you think this is an echo of how the current u.s. administration has handled immigrants crossing the border? Erica Ilene did not think so. The terminology “provide shelter” really stuck out to me and it could mean a variety of things. Pantone chooses their words very carefully and I do think the concept of providing + seeking shelter is very important in our current events.   IN THE ENVIRONMENT is this color choice meant to call attention to coral reefs being endangered? National Geographic says that our Coral Reefs could be gone in 30 years.  A UN study found that unless global warming is reduced, coral reefs will die of heat stress. Reef expert, Mark Eakin, calls this catastrophe, “heartbreaking” as it’s already happening. According to National Geographic, 25 reefs (3/4 of the world’s reef systems) experienced severe bleaching events, the worst to date. Eakin says, “The Great Barrier Reef damage we’ve seen is greater than anything we’ve seen in the past 20 years.” And, “The last 3 years have been extremely depressing for me.” Source.   4 | HOW WILL SOCIAL MEDIA BE INFLUENCED BY CORAL IN 2019? There’s no doubt creates a liveliness that is very relevant and effective within social media realms. Do You See Living Coral As Being “Instagrammable?” If yes, leave me a comment at the bottom of this blog post and let me know! I’d love to see your screenshots and examples, too.   5 | HISTORY OF THE COLOR CORAL Coral reefs were first harvested for jewelry by the ancient Egyptians, and worn in Rome to ward off evil. Renaissance paintings of baby Jesus often depict him holding a coral amulet (assumed to also ward off evil). Before the 16th century, Chinese and Europeans would have labeled this color yellow-red.  Europeans learned the Sanskrit word ‘naranga' via trade in the late 15th century, which later became orange in English. By the mid-18th century, iron-oxide pigments could be mass produced for painting red, orange, and yellow shades. In 1840, the more chemically stable color, cadmium yellow, was created, followed by cadmium red in 1920 - both flooded the market while making the full range of orange hues possible for the very first time. Coral became a favorite among Impressionists and the rest is history. In the Victorian era, it was carved for cameo portraits. Coral was prized in sleek Art Deco jewelry during the first half of the 20th century. Hippies of the 1960’s and 1970’s treasured it’s raw form.

Because Coral is a blend between Orange and Pink, we’ll have to draw some conclusions from both of these colors. A pink person is less ostentatious than a red person, but still has style and perspective.  In softer tints, it is pure, demure, and sweet.  If you love pink, you are generally talented, but not pushy or overly ambitious. Lovers of orange work and play hard, are expansive, extroverted, and have original ideas. They are good-natured, adventurous, and enthusiastic with strong determination. They are pretty agreeable and happy. Orange-lovers can be fickle.  Their newest friend is often their best friend until the next shiny new person comes along. Success in business can often come from this gregarious, charming person. Coral-lovers will find themselves in somewhere in the middle of the scale - perhaps loving to be social on the weekends, but preferring to stay in during the week.   CORAL HATERS If you hate pink, then it’s innocence is quite annoying to you.  You consider it weak.  Hot Pink is too showy for you and you’re just not a person with that much audacity who needs to be the center of attention.  You prefer sophisticated and friendly colors staying safe in the realm of neutrals and muted blues. If you hate orange, then nothing flamboyant appeals to you.  You are not a fan of partying, hilarity, loud people, showing off, or public displays of affection.  You may be a bit of a loner, although you prefer to have a few genuine friends and once you’ve made a friend, it’s for life.  You are very loyal and sincere. Coral-haters will find themselves in somewhere in the middle of the scale - perhaps you have some boldness inside of you when necessary, but you prefer to keep it reserved for extremely important situations.  Maybe you enjoy a nice party from time-to-time, but you would never host a large party yourself.

Is coral relevant to your target audience and does it make sense with what you’re ultimately selling? For example, I highly doubt Ford is going to come out with new coral sedans next year. However, see if you can work it into your existing assortment or product offering. If you are selling gifts or accessories this is an amazing accent color! See if you can use it as a pop color on a small detail. The exact shade of coral can be flexible. Perhaps, you want a dull version of coral which suits your customers better. This could work well for textiles and home decor products such as rugs and pillows. Coral can also be a great shade for marketing and advertisements. It is easy to incorporate into your social media strategy. And if you can’t physically incorporate coral tones into your business, you can always develop into the overall meaning behind Living Coral by bringing a sense of environmental consciousness to your business messaging.   TAGS Living Coral Living Coral 2019 2019 Pantone Color of the Year 2019 Pantone Color Living Coral Pantone Living Coral Pantone 2019 Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year 2019 Pantone Color Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Make Up Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Nail Polish Living Coral Pantone Color of the Year Fashion Lauren Lesley Studio Design Tribe Living Color Coral color of the year 2019 pantone 2019 color of the year pantone Color of the Year

(Installing energy efficient lighting and controls saves money and benefits the planet — a clear win-win situation!)  Pantone Color Institute named its 2019 Color of the Year, Living Coral. The coral hue features gold undertones that the institute says “energizes and enlivens with a softer edge.” Seeking inspiration for this year's color, the organization says Living Coral is in reaction to the prominence of digital technology and social media in daily life and the desire for authentic experiences. The institute also states that the shade symbolizes an “innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits” and the “desire for playful expression.” “Color is an equalizing lens through which we experience our natural and digital realities, and this is particularly true for Living Coral,” states Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of Pantone Color Institute. “With consumers craving human interaction and social connection, the humanizing and heartening qualities displayed by the convivial [color] hit a responsive chord.” Embroidery Technology Advancements Terry: Give us a little history of ZSK and why they have positioned themselves to get involved with all this innovation? Erich: I know that I love seeing the out-of-this world tech and manufacturing that embroidery is aiding these days, but before I run us out into arcane processes, why don't we talk a little bit about where embroidery is going now? What sort of changes have you noticed about the commercial embroidery market's focus recently and what sort of features or innovations are already in the pipeline that addresses how the market is evolving? (personalization, indiv. Production, head selection, production aids/projection) Terry: I see Erich reposting lots of your content. Can you tell us more about these ‘embroidery adjacent' technologies that are coming into use? (Upholstery, Shoe uppers, etc?) Erich: Alright- we've talked about the kinds of embroidery we all know about, let's get a little further out there into technologies derived from embroidery- tell us a little more about what ‘Technical Embroidery' means and what is it doing for manufacturing? What kinds of things are you helping companies make that people might not even think of as embroidery? Terry: What kinds of these high-tech applications are still on the horizon, and what is within our abilities to do right now? How about average decorator? Can they get in on this? (E-textiles,

On this weeks episode we interview the one and only Leatrice Eiseman! She is the director of the Pantone Color Institute and an actual, international color expert! She is from Seattle, travels the world, and has written 10 books! 4:05 First question! What does Leatrice tell people when she’s sitting on an airplane and she has more than a few minute to talk to someone about what she does? Leatrice wears a few hats. She truly is a color expert. She knows what each color means and why color is an integral part of what we do. 6:00 What would you say to designers who pick a color based off it “feeling right”. Feelings do enter in to a certain extent, but there are so many more things to evaluate. Like: who are your competitors, The psychology of color, and what are the upcoming trends? It’s a thoughtful process, because as a designers you have to explain WHY you chose those colors. *Brandi is super validated right now* 8:16 Do color meanings evolve over time? Yes! They can! There are some that “never” change. One that has is the color brown. Over time, from a historical perspective, it went from being described as “dirt” and “dirty.” But Martha Stewart came out and taught us a few things and then pop culture/artsy movies like Chocolat came out and started changing how people see the color brown. 12:25 Would you say that there is such thing as an ugly color? To Leatrice, this is a very personal question. She dives into the psychology of why people consider colors ugly. 14:23 How does color influence pop culture, or does pop culture influence color? The people who work on films are very well versed in color. So color gets into a film because the makers know about it. The movie comes out, and the consumer/viewer of the film sees the colors on the screen, and then they want the things and colors that they see on the screen, Example: The new Peanuts movie, The colors are a lot more vibrant and pop a whole lot more than it did years ago when the original came out. 20:00 How does color stretch across all forms of creative and design industries? It used to be that whatever came down the runway was what the colors of the season were. That has now changed. In the 90’s we then saw Mac computers come out in different colors, and that sort of made people think “wait, maybe I should jump on that.” It turns out, you can't just read specific things that address your specific niche of an industry. You have to keep your eyes open. Something that Leatrice reads often is Wired Magazine. It came on the scene as a very electronic based thing but is a great source for upcoming trends. Gathering information from unusual places is a good thing to focus on. 24:25 Leatrice is NOT a color dictator! She's more of a… "color guru". 25:00 How do you choose the Pantone color of the year? She (and the other people who work on it) stores away information all throughout the year. She travels throughout the world, and is constantly on the look out for patterns and trends. You see colors everywhere. Everyone involved in the choosing process observe artists who are getting a lot of attention, and they also look into the psychological effect of the color. The meaning of the color is very important to them! 29:30 They have some ideas for the color of 2018 but NO spoilers!! 30:10 How are colors going to change in 50 years? As long as children are given to crayons to draw with, there will always be color in the world.  It’s a part of who we are! 33:26 Do you think a persons favorite color says something about their personality? Leatrice thinks it does. However, she thinks it says its less about that one special color and more about how they choose to use it with other colors. Ex. White. No one uses white to an extreme. It’s more about combinations of color. 34:34 Leatrice has written a brand new Color Harmony book, which will be out in September! This book is about color combinations,
