#313 Light Relief Yellow
Light Relief Charity
www.lightrelief.org.uk/
Light Relief Yellow 313 was created by Rick Fisher on behalf of the Light Relief charity, the objective being threefold; to offer additional exposure to this important endeavor, to provide a revenue stream to the charity and to offer a new color to designers everywhere.
When asked about the choice of color, Fisher said "I wanted the Light Relief yellow to be a warm late afternoon sunny color. So many yellows look harsh or acidic. Light Relief yellow is a good bridge between the pale straw shades and the ambers we use all the time". Fisher also commented, "I am thrilled to be working with this wonderful initiative of Rosco's to benefit Light Relief and bring about a new addition to the their color range". |

#361 Hemsley Blue
Hemsley Lighting Programs
www.hemsleylightingprograms.com/ob/gvh/home/
Mark Stanley, resident Lighting Director for the New York City Ballet and Associate Professor at Boston University, designed this color as a memorial to his mentor, the late Gilbert Hemsley. Mark Stanley said: "Gilbert had an extraordinary sense of color and was a particular fan of blues. We needed a blue filter similar to those Gilbert used on the older Leko's - but updated for modern fixtures.
This new filter is a beautiful cold blue that won't turn muddy when dimmed. It's right out of Lake Mendota in Madison. The fact that every purchase will benefit the Hemsley Lighting Program is a gracious tribute by Rosco to Gilbert's spirit and legacy". |
