THE FRENCH RAILWAY IS STREAMLINING WITH NCS
France has the most extensive railway system in Western Europe. SNCF, the company that operates the railway, recently implemented NCS in their visual identity management concerning the trains. A comprehensive analysis was carried out on their current colours. Overlapping colours were removed and primary colour standards were set for the most common SNCF colours. To coordinate and control their hundreds of global suppliers to the right colour, secondary colour standards (duplicates of the primary colour standards) were produced. With an effective colour management, SNCF saves time and money while securing their colour communication
 

THE POTENTIAL OF COLOUR IN CERAMICS
Ceramiche Refin is the second largest ceramic group in Europe and offers a broad range of porcelain stoneware wall and floor tiles for residential and project-planning purposes. Their attention to detail and the will to use the full potential of colour led them to NCS in their new Cromie ceramic collection. In the Cromie collection, colour is used to support the design of the ceramic tiles. Four families have been developed in nine chromatic shades to use colour in a strategic way and to broaden the expressive potential of ceramics. The colours have been created and organised by the relationship between the colours using the NCS System and the ability to link ceramics with other elements. All colours on their stoneware in the Cromie collection are complete with NCS Notations. The use of NCS in Cromie has supported Ceramiche Refin in their core values of quality and innovation with environmental concern and we are happy to welcome them into the world of colours and as an NCS Licencee

 


DOSHI LEVIEN
Imagine a house in the urban context of Shanghai, Tokyo or an Indian city. The houses seem to be sewn together, different but still closely connected. It doesn't seem to be conscious design, almost as if the design has been authored by the people who live in it. These are the thoughts that inspired Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien, the young designer couple behind the successful London based design studio Doshi Levien, when creating the installation "Das Haus" for the IMM COLOGNE 2012 trade fair in Germany. Using the Natural Colour System they have created the entire colour concept for their project. Their teamwork combines Indian and European, male and female and graphic and functional formal quality of design that has caught the attention of many, such as Tefal, Moroso and Cappellini to name a few - IMM Cologne 2013


HEIMTEXTIL TREND BOOK 2012/13
The trends for the coming season have been characterised by the far-reaching events over the past few years e.g. the nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima, the banking crisis and mass demonstrations. Colour is now in focus and powerful, fresh tones show an optimistic view of the world. HEIMTEXTIL is the largest international trade fair for home and office textiles. Acting as a trend barometer it also launched Heimtextil Trends, a team of seven international design studios formulating the most important tendencies for the coming season. Each year a different design studio, this year bora.herke.palmisano, collects the coming trends in the Trend Book, all colours with NCS Notations. The theme is MONTAGE and it is about mixing existing elements into something new, personal and individual that has not existed before - Heimtextil 2013

 
FÄRG - EN CENTRAL DEL AV VARUMÄRKET
Enligt uppgifter från CMG (Color Marketing Group) kan 85 % av skälen till att folk köper en produkt eller ett objekt vara färgen. Arkitekter, designers, marknadsförare m.m. investerar stort i att hitta rätta färger för sina objekt med målet att skapa ett unikt utseende och stärka varumärket. Vodafone, ett av världens största kommunikationsföretag, är ett av många globala företag som förlitar sig på NCS och expertisen hos NCS Colour i sin färgkommunikation. Med bl.a. speciellt framtagna färgtoleranslikare för de mest frekventa Vodafonefärgerna har de nu ett sätt att koordinera och styra sina olika leverantörer världen över till rätt färg
