This acronym means Color, Material and Finish and it's a method used in industrial Design for choosing the materials and colors that define how the products looks and feels for the users.

I often use this page regularly, a few times, one time a week or sometimes each day in the morning, through Insta stories links published day by day.

Another reason because I like this page is that it's multi-platform media (Mobile, web, youtube and social media) and the most important thing, all its contents are free and of very good quality.
