Changing environments at the Ace Hotel with Comex paint, Curated by Arkitip.

One scarcely realizes how much color can affect one’s mood until you happen to find yourself in a room where the paint is actually something other than white. Maybe you visit a friend’s house who is a fantastic interior decorator, or travel to the Caribbean, India or Latin America where they embrace dramatic color. Even a slight change in color can positively impact your mood, making you more productive, relaxed, even happy.

Comex partners with Arkitip to conduct a study in color and with Hotel partner, Ace Hotel Palm Springs, the partnership is complete. Five rooms at the Ace Hotel Palm Springs were repainted using 3 color combinations provided by Comex based on the color schemes presented in the Comex trend color books. We invited five media reporters will stay for a long weekend switching rooms every night to experience the color in each room.

As customary we created a video to document the process and share the results.

Many thanks to The Comex Group, The Ace Hotel and all of the journalists that attended.
