These colors weren’t just shades they were the decade’s heartbeat, pulsing through its bold designs, garish fashion, and emotional upheavals.

SCHOOL CORRIDOR
There is a particular type of corridor a British school corridor, cold and clinical that carries with it a kind of grim dignity. The walls are stained with the remnants of battles fought by generations of students who, despite
their difference in dress codes, haircuts, and personal tragedies, are united in a single universal experience: the horror of being fifteen. There’s poetry in this bland, uncomfortable place the school corridor is like adolescence itself the colour will never leave you, not entirely.

ENGLISH DESSERTS
The colors of English desserts are a peculiar, endearing parade of muted whimsy, custard yellows that blush with embarrassment, treacle browns that glisten like a damp Sunday afternoon, and jam reds that scream of overripe strawberries and unapologetic indulgence. For all their charming Englishness, these hues seem to carry the self-awareness of a man who knows he’s wearing the wrong trousers but doesn’t much care. They are colors that whisper of tradition yet laugh at their own absurdity, splashing across sponges, tarts, and trifles with a reckless, almost defiant abandon. To eat an English dessert is to taste color itself unrefined, unpretentious, and utterly, gloriously out of step. Use it with abandon, indeed.

COLORS OF COLOMBO
Columbo's charm lies in his ability to blend into his surroundings, making his moments of brilliance all the more surprising. the same could be said of the 'colors of Columbo': it’s a landscape of shades so low-key, so modest, they barely seem to notice they’re there., these colours are a study in restraint, in subterfuge, in the way something so understated can speak volumes. the muted tones of observation, the palette of the underdog, the detective who is never rushed, but always gets his man or woman, eventually. The beige takes down the pink and yellow …these muted "colors" represent something deeper: the idea that Columbo, as a detective, is all about subtlety and a light touch rather than extravagant flair. His style is unflashy, and these colors reflect the unglamorous, humble life aesthetic

enough.

HOLIDAY RETREAT AT THE ALPINE LODGE
The colors of après-ski, are a delightful collision of the absurd and the sublime. Picture the garish neon of ski jackets—pinks and oranges so loud they could wake a hibernating bear clashing gloriously with the muted, snow-dulled greys and whites of the slopes outside. Inside, the lodge is a haven of faux-rustic charm: the burnt orange of cheap vinyl booths, the sticky brown of spilled beer on wooden tables, and the flickering gold of a fire that’s trying too hard to be cozy. There’s the blush of windburned cheeks, the deep red of overpriced wine, and the electric green of a Jägermeister bottle, glowing like a beacon of poor decisions. It’s a palette that screams both indulgence and regret, a Technicolor reminder that après-ski is less about elegance and more about surviving the day with stories to tell.
