How They Color Your World (1/2)

Behind the scenes at a semiannual color-forecasting session with the Color Association of the United States, where the colors you wear are chosen

For all its practical applications, [-----1-----] is a far more emotional than rational process. Sure, the end result determines what color sofa you’ll be buying or what color dress this year’s bridesmaids will wear. But “the quality and direction of the color story has to come [by [----2----],” says fashion designer and Color Association of the United States (CAUS) committee member Monika Tilley.

Color choices develop their own logic

Green emerged in the mid-’90s and has not retreated. “We think of it as symbolic of a certain movement: the preservation of the environment, sustainability, organic,” says committee member Leatrice Eiseman of the Pantone Color Institute. “We’re still living in a very anxious world, and people want to feel reassured.” And regarding the resilience of metallics, thank the ever-influential role of technology.

The perfect palette

Choosing color is “a lot more thoughtful process than a group of people sitting around and saying, ‘Oh, let’s foist this on the American public,’” Eiseman says.

More typically, it’s a pavement-pounding, globetrotting activity based on real research. CAUS committee member Kathryn Gordy Novakovic spends as many as 110 days on the road each year, chronicling, for instance, the clothes worn by edgy kids in trendy neighborhoods. She travels with at least two cameras and is known to whip one out at a restaurant to record a particularly unusual flower or vase.

	音频下载 [cloze] God _________1________ , and soon he realised Adam was lonely. God thought, ‘he hasn’t got any friends, no one to talk to, he will become unhappy soon.’ So one night, when Adam was asleep, God made a woman to be a friend for him. He called her Eve. Adam and Eve got on very well together. They used to play with the animals, and eat lots of fruit from all the trees. Except one - the forbidden tree. One day they decided to walk to the middle of the garden, and there was the most beautiful apple hanging from this special tree. There was also a _________2________ in the tree, who said, ‘Hey, why don’t you two eat that apple, it’s the nicest, biggest, juiciest apple I ever saw.’ Adam looked worried. ‘We’re not allowed to, God said so.’ ‘Oh, don’t worry about that,’ said the horrible snake. ‘Have a bite, go on, have a bite.’ Adam looked at Eve, and Eve looked at Adam, and the apple looked lovely. Eve tasted the apple. ‘Go on, try it,’ she said. Adam had a bite, and at once felt ashamed because he hadn’t any clothes on. It just happened that God was walking in the garden that day, and when Adam and Eve heard him coming up the path, they ran to hide. God was very angry when he found them. ‘You have eaten the fruit, haven’t you?’ he demanded. Adam said they had, but explained that the snake said it would be all right. God told the snake that he was going to be the nastiest animal in the world, and he told Adam and Eve that now they would know everything about good and bad, _________3________, and he turned them out of the garden of Eden and said they must look after themselves.
