Today's emerging trends are bringing together incredibly complex combinations of colors, patinas, sheens, textures and patterns. Opaque, translucent, transparent, pearlescent, iridescent, luminescent, metallic, oxidized. High-Touch has joined with color so a finish must feel as good as it looks. The current high-touch trend in Venetian Plaster is evidence of wanting (and needing) the substantialness of a solid surface and the delicate veil of translucent color. Higher and higher levels of aesthetic reality is being demanded along with the play of light on surfaces, so colors and our choices become more complex. These trends are all symbolic of depth, transparency and Light in a world of matter. Paradox, we must balance these opposites. After the turn of the Century, color psychology, the individual impact of color on our clients, will become much more important. Are you ready?
