While our new book, Color At Home, is already selling well across the country (and some hot spots globally), we can’t help but continue to notice and photograph great paint color when we see it.

Recently while exploring the coast of Turkey and some Greek Islands we pulled into the main harbor on Symi,  (also called Yialos) as the late afternoon sun was drenching the coast.  We were instantly surrounded by these shimmering stucco or cement homes and buildings climbing from the water up the surrounding hills.  The neutral colors were a settling anchor to the pops of vibrant tones of blue, yellow, green, orange and red.   

Even the outdoor cafes use color as a playful backdrop to the fresh tastings. 

More to come. - Meg and Steven
