Submit work for the second Design Seeds x Ello collaboration. Selected artists will be featured in a Design Seeds palette created by Jessica Colaluca.
Launched in May 2009, the Design Seeds site receives one million page views per month and has over one million followers across social media. The site is a modern interpretation of Jessica’s original color journals. An industrial designer with a passion for color, she kept sketchbooks of ongoing trend and colorwork while at companies including Ford, Reebok, and Timberland. When venturing out on her own, Jessica launched Design Seeds, a site for everyone who loves color.
Although the blog began as a personal passion project, it has grown into a global community of creatives. Through collaboration, Design Seeds is able to offer compelling color inspiration while growing exposure for influential and emerging artists.
