Greece Through It's Vibrant Colors



The colors found in Greece are other-worldly.  They are pristine, vibrant and all the while incredibly soothing, whether you are in the Plaka section of Athens or the bright white hill tops in Oia, Santorini.  I love how the buildings and houses perfectly age - how the paint chips here and chips there and ultimately creates a pattern that could only be achieved over time.  Here are some of the color palettes that I discovered, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

      Hi Ramya, as always thank you so much for commenting! No,I'm from NYC, but after my trip to Greece I am wishing I had dual citizenship so that I could go over there more often!

    Such beautiful architecture. There's such life in every fiber and wall. Captured its spirit in color just divinely.
