Post-it Notes Come Alive with Color in Four Fresh Palettes Inspired by Destinations Around the Globe
The iconic Post-it Note takes on a refreshed, global flare in the new Colors of the World collection by Post-it Brand from 3M, embracing the unique vibe of four premier destinations. The collection’s worldly style and colors capture the essence of top regions around the globe, including Bangkok, Mykonos, New York City and Rio de Janeiro. With this launch, internationally recognized stylist Brad Goreski celebrates the latest trends in color, all inspired by these exotic locales.
“Trends in fashion, design and pop culture are taking on more global influence, and of course, one thing that’s always in style is color,” said Brad Goreski, Post-it Brand Color Ambassador. “I am consistently inspired whenever I travel, and I love seeing how the Post-it Brand Colors of the World collection brings the hues from four very chic destinations to life, offering a color scheme inspired by the energy of these places.”
Modern, adventurous, authentic and expressive, the Post-it Brand Colors of the World collection embodies the quintessential spirit of four exciting regions with a vibrant display of colors that mirrors the style and culture of the locations they are inspired by. The array of colors is as diverse as each of the four destinations, ranging from eye-catching bright hues to carefree contemporary shades.
The new Post-it Brand Colors of the World collection palettes include:
- Bangkok – The streets of Bangkok are alive with enchantment, featuring a diversity of flavors, influences, sights and sounds that blend together for a unique fusion. The city’s deep-rooted traditions paired with the sense of discovery and new adventure it offers on every corner informed the playful, upbeat hues of the Bangkok color products. The exotic flair of these shades invites exploration and makes a bold statement.
- Mykonos – A glamorous island destination full of authentic charm and splendor, Mykonos is where the ancient and the modern intersect on the shores of the Aegean Sea. The region is well known for the iconic shades of blue and white that dot its vistas, which inspired the Mykonos Color Collection. The cool, crisp and effortless hues feel stylish yet tranquil, bringing a welcome calm.
- New York City – The “city that never sleeps” is a universal capital of opportunity, excitement and experimentation that makes its mark on everyone who visits. Known for being a melting pot with influences spanning from around the globe, New York City has its own distinct spirit that is palpable. The New York City Color Collection features contemporary hues ranging from grays and blues reflective of the city’s endless steel, stone, gridiron and skyscrapers to the glowing yellow hue that lights up the world-famous skyline each night.
- Rio de Janeiro – Known as the “Marvelous City,” Rio de Janeiro is set against an exhilarating mix of mountains, beaches, rainforests and deep blue sea, making it one of the most colorful cities in the world with a rhythm all its own. Expressive, attention-grabbing colors make up the Rio de Janeiro color palette representing this city that is at once bustling yet laid back. These bold and bright tropical shades are sure to turn heads.
