But it can also be a very valuable tool on any designer’s palette. Color has the power to (pardon the pun) set the tone for just about everything—from sneakers to smartphones to packaging and the color of a room. The folks at the Pantone Color Institute know a thing or two about color and the effect it can have on creating just the right mood or atmosphere. <a href="https://www.pantone.com/color-of-the-year/2023" target="_blank">Viva Magenta 18-1750</a>, which Pantone describes as a color that “vibrates with vim and vigor” has been named the Pantone color of the year for 2023. Pantone describes the color as “brave and fearless … a pulsating color whose exuberance promotes a joyous and optimistic celebration, writing a new narrative.” http://www.visionmonday.com/style/frame-collections/article/setting-the-tone-with-color/ The Vision Council Releases Focused inSights: Online vs. In-Person Buyers 2022 http://www.visionmonday.com/business/article/the-vision-council-releases-focused-insights-online-vs-inperson-buyers-2022/ Fri, 18 Nov 2022 00:30:00 -0400 ALEXANDRIA, Va.—The Vision Council has released Focused inSights: Online vs. In-Person Buyers 2022.  The report provides information on the differences and similarities between online and in-person eyewear buyers, including demographic data, managed vision care use, eye exams, prescription eyeglasses/sunglasses, contact lenses, plano sunglasses and reading glasses.
