One of my favorite parts of travel is seeing historic buildings — there's always so much to learn when you go somewhere new. This week's Color Crush color palette comes from a photo of a copper-roofed old church with some wonderful hues. This is a common site over parts of Europe, the copper that has turned a green color, contrasting with a terra cotta colored roof.
The beiges, grays, and browns of the walls and steeple act as a neutral backdrop for this color palette, with teal and terra cotta as pops of color. This would be a dynamic choice for a living room or dining room — green, being an earth color, is calming, as is the taupe and brown. The terra cotta would be a fun accent color to incorporate in window coverings or pillows, don't you think? How would you use this color palette?
