Scheming



We were obliged to pick colours recently for part of our project - the roof and the windows. We opted for gull grey (the roof) and appliance white (the windows). Hopefully the gull grey won't show the peacock poop on the roof...

At the time that we were looking at swatches, I was interested to read this blog entry about naming colours. The survey results reported in the blog show that women come up with many more creative and more varied names for colours than men. But for some reason I think that gull grey and appliance white were probably named by men.
