Emphasise this monochromatic look with Hot Metal® Random and Reed patterns. The current move to modern nostalgia with sub themes of elegant Baroque and contemporary Gothic can be achieved with hues of Hot Metal® Gold, Cherry, Pewter and Aubergine. To accentuate such smooth, luxe, moody sub themes couple these colours with Hot Metal® Space pattern. To evoke emotions from the past consider referencing such accent colours as Hot Metal® Lemon Yellow and Zest which are capable of expressing the now with a futuristic twist. If the desire is towards the trend for natural elements, then Hot Metal's® Bronze, Copper, Cinda Blue & Aqua Marine will conger earth, weathering, erosion and sea sprays. Blend with Hot Metal's® Reed pattern for the rippled effects of sand and water.
