 Since Peckler's was founded in 1970, color has always been at the heart of our expertise. Peckler's trend forecasting books line a shelf, first focusing on fashion and later also on home, design and beauty. Our color trendbook, issued twice a year, illustrates our vision for 45 new exclusive colors each season. Orderly squares of named colors fill two white pages. We create our colors through a rigorous and collaborative process, working two years in advance to anticipate our client's manufacturing process. Fabric samples are held to photographs and paintings that feature matching colors. Each season, each stylist from our team, all from different backgrounds and cultures, creates a mood board and an initial color palette that reflects their personal, creative vision based on intuition and deep knowledge of the market. The combination of our talents allows us to offer a truly global, forward-looking approach while taking into consideration essential needs of the markets. The team members show colleagues their mood boards with complementary fabric and yarn samples. Our final selection of 45 shades reflects our commitment to what we consider the best options for the season. Collections of fabric blanket a table and stained bottles of ink and dye line a workbench. Working from groups of inspiration materials such as yarns, ribbons and plastics, each color is then hand-painted to reflect the exact nuance we are looking for. Papers are hand-painted with colored inks. These crafted colors are then recreated by a printer to allow for production at an industrial scale. Fabric samples are held to matching sheets of color. Our palette is divided into seven separate ranges, each illustrated by an iconic inspirational image. A piece of artwork, a painting, a landscape or architecture that reflects the spirit in which we see the colors staged. A team member flips through a book of glossy photographs. Another very important part of the process is the creation of harmonies or colorways that provide our customers with our recommendation for color combinations, prints or visual merchandising. Our customers can also create their own harmonies on our digital platform Pecklers Plus. A woman makes a virtual scrapbook of images and colors. Finally, all colors are available in the trend book. We've been on paper swatches and dyed on fabric, as well as either cotton yarns in summer or woolen winter. Multiple scrapbooks with yarns and color chips are shown. Pecklers Colorbook has been our best-selling publication for over 45 years and continues to inspire creatives and marketers all over the world. We strongly believe that color is a key signature for originality, helping brands stand out and stand apart. Pecklers Paris, fashioning the future.
