Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco
"Completed in 1937, the Golden Gate Bridge turned International Orange into a California icon, its Art Deco towers and 2.7-kilometer span defying fog and strong tides. Consulting architect Irving Morrow chose the vivid hue to stand out in mist. The line art traces vertical suspender ropes, roadway, and sailboats below. Layer coral-orange with fog grays, navy water, and eucalyptus hill greens to feel the breezy passage between Pacific and bay."
