Colour Palette No. 8

29 March 2023

There is so much beauty in everyday vistas and yet often we are too hasty to notice them at all. In this case we don’t stop to smell the flowers, but to admire a stunning composition in its mundane simplicity.

The wall itself is a light version of my mother’s “vispgröt”, whipped porridge in Swedish, which sounds rather ghastly but is not, as the main ingredient happens to be the bright red lingonberry. Whipped airy with a hand mixer, vispgröt served with cold milk on top is a deliciously cool treat on warm days. But here we are again. I am not in the business of running a food blog, so let’s look at the urban setting instead.

Here are the colour swatches with hex codes added:

About Nina Martin

A bit of fabric and thread can take us on journeys we never thought to exist and from which we luckily may never recover. Coffee starts my day, a book finishes it, and in between happens the gloriously mundane or unexpectedly adventurous. The freckles? Have had them since day 1.
