Teal Linik trough planted with all white/green plants |
In that case the colour was being requested by clients and I was only too happy to provide.
In these case I have suggested it as there were teal feature walls/furniture in the offices and I though similarly coloured pots would look good.
So I've done three jobs in the last year or so where I have used various Pantone teals, and all cases they have been matt.

The trough above looked particularly effective as it was in front of a glass panel blocking off a corridor end, so it is in a natural focal point; I'm also quite keen on my current habit of planting 'cold coloured' troughs with all white/green variegated foliage like here. Warm colours look equally good with all lime green/yellow variegation in.
For those that care all these troughs are Pantone 321U (the 'U' stands for uncoated,. i.e. matt), interesting how different it looks in different photos.
Finally, and slightly politically incorrectly, I suspect I am one of a very small percentage of straight men that actually knows what colour 'teal' is.
