Culture Buzz Can you name the superhero based solely on their predominant color? Artist Gidi Vigo created a series of hyper minimalist posters with nothing but a superhero's Pantone color match, now converted into a nerdy graphic design quiz. Answers at the bottom!
A graphic designer made a bunch of Pantone cookies placed in Pantone tins for her clients. See more pretty pics here.
And the winner is: MIMOSA YELLOW, a color that “yellow exemplifies the warmth and nurturing quality of the sun.” Wouldn't the correct name for the color be then, “Sun Yellow”? Mimosa Yellow just reminds me of being hungover at brunch on Saturdays. Not quite nurturing.
Pantone's Color of the Year for 2009 is Mimosa, a yellow that is supposed to cheer us up while the whole world goes to pot. Funnily enough, real mimosas also do that.

Designers want one: A Rubik’s cube done up in all Pantone colors. Sadly, it’s a one-off idea, not an actual product. But easy to make, all you DIYers!
