☀️ Summer Color Palette 1993

Bold blues, vivid greens, warm golds, and the bright, unhesitating energy of long days at their peak.

1992 1993 1994

Summer is the season of maximum saturation. The sky is not merely blue — it is intensely, almost aggressively blue, the kind of blue that makes shadows look purple and grass look almost electric. Sunflowers do not ask for attention; they demand it with full-throated yellow. Even the shade is warm. This palette draws from that abundance: the Mediterranean sea at noon, the deep heart of a sunflower, the lush green of midsummer foliage in full leaf, the warm gold of late afternoon light on limestone, and the particular turquoise of a swimming pool glimpsed through garden gates. It is a palette without apology.
