INTERIOR DESIGN | COLOR CHALLENGE

Whether it's painting one wall in your home or the entire exterior, adding paint color to wood floors and doors or creating new life to upcycled old furniture, colored paint will ensure a pop to any space.  
So, what would happen if I took a few of my travel photos and matched paint chip colors from the image?  Would it result in a successful color scheme?  Maybe travel can inspire paint choices in your home?
I decided to use all Benjamin Moore paint for the experiment because of their quality of paint and array of colors.

The following four collages are inspired by mother nature from my travels to exotic destinations.

Destination · Fiji (photo above)

This sandspit in Fiji, accessible only by boat was surrounded by white sand and coral in an irregular egg shape.  It was located in close proximity to where the movie Cast Away was filmed.

You may have noticed Bali twice in this post, Because I couldn't make my mind up on what photo to eliminate.  The light in Bali is so unreal...This country is the most tranquil and gorgeous place! That's why it's on my top 5 places to photograph.
This photo was taken during sunrise with my iPhone at The Ritz-Carlton Bali in Nusa Dua.
