Seoul, South Korea is a large, bustling, and colourful metropolis. Although, when monsoon season arrives, the city quickly turns grey, wet, and just depressing. There is not much that can be done to control the weather, so a group of designers, art directors, and a paint company named Pantone decided to think outside the box. The team applied hydrochromic paint, a formula that changes from clear to full-color when wet, to the streets of Seoul. The street murals are part of *Project Monsoon,* a plan to cheer people up from the cold and wet weather. The vibrant paintings also include a cultural element as South Koreans give great “importance of the flow of the river.”
