Todd, great piece of work. I'm a Canadian living in NYC. I'm wondering if you have considered doing a U.S. version? Thanks again.

This author might know of the recent entry of a suite of "Newfoundland Heritage Paints" made by Matchless Paints and viewable at www.heritagefoundation.ca. Interesting concept with historical research married to local enterprise.

Hi! I'm a portuguese architecture student and i found your work very interesting, not only as a study but also as a very useful instrument for architecture! Currently i'm projecting a small equipment in Paris, have you studied it's colours?

These are nice colour combinations but ultimately this is weak. It's too easy to say "these colours are found in the parliament building so it must be Ontario/Ottawa". I got a swatch for America, it's red white and blue - give me a cookie!

...Sorry if I sound harsh but this is walrus, not highlights!
