I’ve made some changes to the confessions of a design geek Pinterest page and thought it was about time I shared them with you. Inspired by the Kaleidoscope section of Fiera Magazine, the boards are now arranged by colour and feature the same sort of product and furniture design I cover on the blog, combined with inspirational art, photography, architecture, interior design and lifestyle shots.

Whether you sing a rainbow or ask Richard of York, the first colour is red. Red is not a colour I’m naturally drawn to, but I’ve been having real fun spotting the images for this board and have found myself reconsidering this fiery hue! I’ll be sharing all the other boards over the coming weeks, so watch this space. And let me know what you think of my new approach – I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Follow confessions of a design geek’s board Red on Pinterest.

    I love this idea. Very clever when we are bombarded with images and colours to make boards categorized by colour. It makes you more aware of the form and design. Love the green one especially but going back for a more in depth look and possibly some re-pinning 🙂
