Home-friendly colors for Decent?
A few weeks ago, I hired our first in-house digital artist, Harris, with both an art school degree, and previous jobs in photography, designing billboards and making her own digital store.
I've tasked her with thinking about how the DE1 fits into home kitchens and how we could improve that with the use of colors or other modifications to the chassis.
She came up with 4 color suggestions by surveying contemporary kitchens, and finding what is both most popular, but also what tones fit with other colors. Here's a “mood board” she made for me.
We'll be making 10 espresso machines each, in the 4 colors below, and selling them. Based on our experience, and customer feedback, we'll decide what to do next with this idea. We're also looking at different color wood and resin, for the handles, though it's likely that the light natural wood handles will work with all these colors. Naturally, I'll post photos of these assembled machines, once we've built them.
