In many parts of the world we are experiencing a gender blur as it relates to fashion， which has in turn impacted color trends throughout all other areas of design. This more unilateral approach to color is coinciding with societal movements toward gender equality and fluidity， the consumer‘s increased comfort with using color as a form of expression， a generation that has less concern about being typecast or judged and an open exchange of digital information that has opened our eyes to different approaches to color usage.
世界上许多地方的时尚领域都在经历着性别淡化，这种现象反过来又影响着其他设计领域的色彩趋势。如今，单一的配色方式正在经历着复杂的社会运动：性别平等运动和性别流动性运动如火如荼、消费者日益青睐用颜色作为表达方式、新一代人不再在意跟风和被人指指点点，人们可以接受到各种开阔眼界的配色信息。

Serenity is weightless and airy， like the expanse of the blue sky above us， bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times. Whether in soft or hard surface material， the pairing of Rose Quartz and Serenity brings calm and relaxation.
