For those of you were weren’t aware, Panatone Color Matching is the system which standardizes colors around the world.

In a recent color mixy-matchy project, Inka Mathews used the Pantone system to match various random items with their colors. The match-ups are pleasing to the eye, partially because of the tiny objects involved. The other pleasing aspect comes from the well-done composition and the matching colors.

“One morning, when I was looking around to see the plants in my front yard, my attention was captured by these intense bright blue little flowers called Veronica Georgia Blue. A question popped in my head, ‘I wonder what PMS color is that?’ The design-geek in me urged me to pick a bloom and try to find a matching Pantone color for it. It was PMS 2726”.
