Colour issues again

Last time I wrote about "taking advice" from nature when it comes up to combining colours. However there are methods which correspond to current technical progress :)
On internet you can already find interesting colour palettes and even whole web-sites of such palettes. And here i present you a project www.design-seeds.com. The project has been created by Jessica, who besides being passionate about colour, also has degree in industrial design and worked for Ford, Timberland and Reebok, so there can't be any questions about professionalism and experience of the project's founder. On the website you can search palettes by theme and colour value. It's also possible to purchase palette books and some other products.
Another and very, i'd say, serious approach to colour matching is Pantone Matching System: pantone.com. Well, you can browse their page by yourself, so there is no need to tell in details about their products. The most important is that they make trend forecasts and that's how we can find out what are the most fashionable colours of coming seasons. And so the colour of the year 2014 is Radiant Orchid.
Do you use any services in matters related to colour?

Colour issues

I don't know if you've ever had problems choosing colors, but I can say that it does bother me a lot. What bothers me the most is how colours match.
Couple years ago I heard a good piece of advice from TV. It was a program on how to dress and the "victim" of style gurus had a problem of matching colours. Besides everything this person really liked butterflies. So one of the "gurus" said that to develop a good taste for colours that person could buy a photo-album of butterflies and see how the nature itself matches colours.
I consider it to be a very good advice which concerns not only clothes but interior and crafts as well.
And some pictures for inspiration :)
