a Venice-inspired color palette

Today’s color inspiration comes from a window that caught my eye in Venice. Moorish influence on Venetian Gothic architecture can be seen throughout the city, namely in the shape of arches like this one. I love the little plants peeking through the stonework, too.

DARK BLUE #182D43 / BEDFORD BLUE #48697C / LIGHT BLUE-GRAY #B1BCCA

STONE #E3D6CF / LIGHT TAN #CDB4A3 / WARM GRAY #69615B

Just for fun, I’m throwing in The Orders of Venetian Arches by John Ruskin (1853, Vol. 2 of The Stones of Venice) so you can play “Find That Arch.” Happy Friday!
