Phew! I made it through an unexpectedly busy summer and now I’m back to share a 5-part color series featuring PASTELS… just in time to close out the season.

First up is the pink and yellow façade of a South African showroom called 99 Juta Street. Looking at this image, how badly do you want to find out what’s inside?!!! Click here to see more shots of the amazing space.

BEST YELLOW #FFD533 / LIGHT BLUSH PINK #F3DADA

BLUSH PINK #EAC3C2 / LIGHT TERRA COTTA #D38062 / TERRA COTTA #A25133

WHAT ARE THESE COLOR CODES? The “hex codes” above are provided as a courtesy for those customizing website colors or looking for general color inspiration. They are not based on paint or Pantone chips. Remember that ink on paper will never look the same as light on a screen. If you like a combination you see, we recommend saving the image and heading to your local hardware store to find paint chips that match. Digital colors will change depending on your phone/tablet/computer screen, so be sure to color match with real swatches. Also, I make up all the color names.

Happy Back-to-School Friday!
