		<description><![CDATA[As we step into Summer, there is buzzing anticipation of hot, balmy days and excitement for summer vacations. Plascon has created its latest Summer colour palette &#8211; High Frequency &#8211; to encapsulate this optimistic energy. Plascon’s High Frequency emulates a refreshing poolside sip of lemonade on a hot day with its vibrant and zesty colours. The energetic colours of the Summer palette will work for both individual and group needs, in any space or place. The power of colour does not always lie in specific hues, but rather in how they are used to evoke responses. A mixture of playful and bouncy colours and balanced, cooler neutrals, this new palette strikes the balance between bringing increased energy levels and excitement without overpowering the senses. Plascon Lime Miss (Y6-A1-2) is the key colour in this palette. A fresh lime green, this bright and juicy hue is equal parts vitality, growth and new beginnings. It also nods to nature, with South African summers being synonymous with days spent outdoors. Plascon Monet Magic (B3-A1-1) is a bright and powerful shade of blue that offers a complementary depth to the brightness of Plascon Lime Miss (Y6-A1-2). Send bolts of energy into your home with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With a 100% year-on-year increase in Pinterest searches, Japandi is the latest trend to beautify homes. But unlike fads that come and go, Japandi holds an element of timelessness that not only reveals a long history but points to a long future as well. &#160; A fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian design, Japandi aims to create clean, calm and harmonious spaces. The two schools share design principles of simplicity, functionality, natural materials, and craftsmanship. The Scandi notion of ‘hygge’ and the Japanese ‘wabi-sabi’ harmonise to create stress-free atmospheres and spaces. With attention to detail, meticulous craftsmanship and timelessness deeply rooted in both Japanese and Scandinavian design, Japandi is more than a passing trend. The natural cohesion between the two has embedded Japandi as design DNA with many designers, a style to which they continue to turn, and increasingly so. Despite being a hot topic now, these intertwined principles can be traced back to a trade and cultural exchange that started 150 years ago between Denmark and Japan. Fast-forward to today, Japandi’s sleek lines, calming set-ups and neutral colour schemes make it the perfect antidote to our modern, busy lifestyles and the intense societal shifts of the past year &#8211; further [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We experience and adapt to all sorts of changes in every-day life, whether it is a simple change in weather or unexpected life events. Adjusting to change can be challenging but it is also inevitable and part of being human. With change also comes growth and transformation. This upcoming winter, Plascon is encouraging us to do something different and venture out of our comfort zones. Plascon’s Colour Advice team has come up with a new palette, Vivid Evolution, that offers a rich narrative featuring deep and sumptuous colour combinations that will dramatically change the way your favourite space makes you feel. Vivid Evolution ushers in peace and encourages quiet moments of reflection. The soft, stylish and neutral grey colour of Plascon Serious (EC 37) works well for both interiors and exteriors. It is a versatile colour that blends in and complements almost any setting. Plascon Timeless Classic (P4-D1-1) is a mid-lavender hue with a neutral undertone, a perfect shade to use as an accent colour, to make you feel pretty and light-hearted. In addition, lavender hues are known to support healing, calmness and renewal and are linked with perception, higher consciousness and insight. &#160; Bring balance into your life with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Popular Durban artist, Kev Seven is seizing the moment with an edgy new mural that pays homage to Afro-Futurism, fashion, the evolution of African identity and its relationship to the modern world. The mural forms part of an initiative &#8211; set to bring colour to public spaces &#8211; supported by coatings brand, Plascon . Seven’s fresh new public artwork can be found at Noble Park in Berea, Durban and is there for all to enjoy. The upbeat mural greets viewers with a racy typographical treatment of the word HEITA &#8211; a cheery, slang form of Hello &#8211; and depicts a portrait of a young woman wearing lime-tinted shades as its focal point. With a wide range of products and colours to choose from, Seven opted for the durable and low odour acrylic PVA, Plascon True Colour Brilliant Sheen, to bring his vision to life. Specially formulated for strength and durability on both interiors and exteriors, with a stain resistant and easy to clean sheen finish, Plascon True Colour Brilliant Sheen tint bases provide an abundance of colour tinting options for long lasting, rich colours, making it the perfect choice for an outdoor mural project such as this. Kev Seven, also [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the evenings start to cool and leaves start to change colour, Plascon looks to Mother Nature’s Autumn guise for inspiration. This season, Plascon has created a calming colour palette that celebrates the radiance and power of nature’s earthy tones and embraces living in the moment. Plascon’s new Sunset Shadows palette draws its inspiration from rich greys while celebrating vibrant yellow, calming green and warm terracotta tones. These colours are versatile and give you the freedom to create both vibrant, energetic combinations and calm, grounded combinations. The Sunset Shadows collection embraces the warm African landscape allowing you to carry the palette from within your home to your outside spaces. Embrace the change in season and update your home to reconnect with nature. The foundation for Plascon’s Sunset Shadows palette is two of our favourite greys Paris Paving (GR-Y09) and Geneva Morn (GR-Y01). Speaking to Plascon’s Nozipho Kunene, who heads the Colour Advisory Service, she highly recommends these two shades as they are neutral and versatile and work with any number of colour combinations.  Inject spice, enthusiasm and vibrancy into your home with the rich, terracotta tones of Plascon Free State Earth (01-C1-2). Or harness the deep green shade of Plascon [...]]]></description>
