PANTONE(R) color search engine on newerahd.com matches artwork to decor color scheme
AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 3, 2009 — New Era Portfolio introduces the PANTONE color search engine at http://ww.newerahd.com. Customers can search by color through thousands of New Era Portfolio fine art images using the PANTONE PAINTS + INTERIORS color search engine.
The search engine is geared toward interior designers and trade professionals who have a color scheme in mind and want to find coordinating artwork. The guide is also a useful tool for retailers, hoteliers and restaurateurs that want to stock up on prints featuring "in" colors.
From the New Era Portfolio home page, customers can select up to five PANTONE colors at a time from more than 1,900 PANTONE PAINTS + INTERIORS designer colors (a component of the PANTONE Textile Color System(R)). A scroll bar navigates through colors ranging from Snowy Egret to Regatta Blue and everything in between. A click of the mouse selects the preferred colors, and another click brings up all images featuring the chosen colors.
"In just a few clicks, our clients can sort through our extensive inventory to see what fine art prints will coordinate with a given color palette," said Joseph L. Garcia, New Era Portfolio founder/CEO. "This online tool is especially helpful for those who don't have a natural eye for matching colors, but it's a time-saver for professional interior designers as well."
Once the color search results appear, those results can be further refined by image orientation and size, subject (18 different categories) and wall color (using the same PANTONE colors).
"For designers, it's like being a kid in a candy shop," continued Garcia. "They love the luscious colors in the PANTONE Color Systems. The hardest part may be actually deciding on which choose. However, experimenting with different colors is no problem. Just select a new group of swatches, and new results appear in seconds."
