Color inspiration from my travels in Italy last January —
These photos were taken in Turin’s city center, near the Palazzo Reale, or Royal Palace of Turin. Known as the Detroit of Italy, Turin is a northern town famous for its auto industry.
I spent a cold winter day there, observing the city’s palette before my train left at dusk. In my memory, the colors feel still, gentle, refined and sweet. It felt fitting when I learned that Turin was the birthplace of giandjuja, the chocolate hazelnut paste that inspired Nutella.
