Hannon - Inlaid Wood Floor

The sixth design is an inlaid wood floor. I leaned into the purple/blue tints for the brown of the wood, since blue became the dominant color of this collection as a I worked on it. I had envisioned the dominant color to be maroon - as the actual house in real life, has maroon walls. But that wasn’t working for me. so I switched to blue. My efforts to put my stained glass over the maroon wall kept ending up brown or gray. As you since in the remaining designs, there is a strong preference for the blue.

It’s funny because when I first made this design, it looked “off” color-wise. As the other designs progressed (this one I made fairly early), the color change from maroon to blue progressed. And by the end, this cool brown leaning into blue, looks correct. You have a hard time imagining that it should be warmer or yellower.
