Color from Soil, Not Swatches

An interior where every color can be traced back to a type of soil. The wall color resembles dry clay, the floor resembles fired brick, textiles resemble unbleached linen and sun-dried straw, and objects resemble unglazed pottery. Every color is slightly uneven, with variations in shade on the same wall, like the natural color differences in soil itself. There is no uniform, saturated industrial color. Avoid: using uniformly mixed commercial paints, adding high-chroma synthetic colors, making every surface color perfectly consistent, using vivid colors with a plastic feel.

一個顏色都能對應到某種土的室內。牆的顏色像乾燥的黏土、地面像燒過的磚、織品像未漂白的麻與曬過的稻草、器物像未上釉的陶土。每一個顏色都略微不均勻,同一面牆上有深淺的變化,像土本身的色差。沒有任何一個顏色是均勻飽滿的工業色。避免:使用調配均勻的商業色漆、加入高彩度的合成顏色、讓每一片表面的顏色完全一致、使用有塑膠感的鮮豔色。
