Breaktime stands out for me as being especially unpleasant, though I don't like Chartreuse either. <br /><br />I'm really not finding much to like about any of these. The first group of colors was kind of okay. (I like Synergy, Sapphire, and Garden Grove, though probably not together, and Habanero Chile and Tempo Teal are nice.) All this really means, though, is that like you, I prefer saturated colors to washed-out ones. <br /><br />And I could really live quite happily without ever seeing another yellow-brown or yellow-green.mr_subjunctivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14113199755474482747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-12754032816379966682010-07-29T12:01:55.756-04:002010-07-29T12:01:55.756-04:00Nim: Hospital nostalgia --now there's one I ne...Nim: Hospital nostalgia --now there's one I never thought about.<br /><br />Kim: Maybe instead of moving forward into the '90s, everybody's taking a step backwards into the '70s.Paul Anaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777487147630173644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-12901242239583487252010-07-29T11:39:47.929-04:002010-07-29T11:39:47.929-04:00This seems very behind--in fashion, they're we...This seems very behind--in fashion, they're well into 80s nostalgia at this point and I'm expecting it will enter the 90s at any point now.<br /><br />But I like Breaktime.

The supporting colours are important to give depth to the scheme and I'd need them if I was going to implement this anywhere I had to live. Agree that copper and minty green are a bit odd, but I like chartreuse and breaktime together.
