Sehee Um
No colour is as ambiguous as the colour beige. On the contrary, beige is an appealing colour that can lead to various speculations. It is known as a natural or neutral tone. Moreover, it can merge different colours to define itself from sandy fawn or ivory brown to even greyish yellow.
Beige reminded me of sand composed of rock and mineral grains of various colours, collecting freckled pigments, making one dominant hue.
