The San Jose Mercury News published a tidbit explaining yet another of the iPhone myriad capabilities (can you blame them since the headquarters of Apple, Inc. is located in the heart of its service area?).
Think those peonies in your neighbor’s yard are the perfect color for your bedroom walls? As the iPhone commercials would say, there’s an app for that. At least two, in fact. Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams have both introduced free iPhone applications that let you shoot a photo and then match a color in the picture to a paint hue. Both also suggest coordinating colors and can even guide the user to the nearest retailer.
Pretty cool. I don’t have an iPhone, though, so I guess I’ll have to pick paint the old-fashioned way — old-fashioned meaning with online tools paint companies have on their websites to help you find coordinating colors and visualize your space.
