# Season-Inspired Color Systems 3form's 2023 Color Collection Adds 10 New Pastel Hues By Kalin Ned | Published 2023-02-27 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/color-system References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/3forms-2023-color-collection-nails-down-hard-to-find-hues/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=3forms-2023-color-collection-nails-down-hard-to-find-hues) & [3-form](https://www.3-form.com/inspiration/2023-color-collection)  In 2023, the leading materials manufacturer 3form added 10 new pastel hues to its existing color system and these nuances are considered "hard-to-find hues." The brand-new capsule takes inspiration from seasonal changes and the emotions that are associated with them—from "the blues of a winter day" to "the purple tones found in spring." 3form's color system, which is suitable mainly for commercial spaces, is enhanced by the introduction of Lavish, Graceland, Alta, Smolder, Honeycomb, Rhubarb, Talc, Cedarwood, Adobe, and Comet. These colors can be adapted to various architectural silhouettes. For example, the pastel hues by 3form can be employed as wall accents and privacy partitions. They also can be used as reception desk wraps and even playful ceiling features. Either way, they will definitely be attention-grabbing.
