In honor of the Lunar New Year, VSCO is collaborating with Shangai-based creative platform Neocha. The company celebrates culture and creativity in Asia, and together with VSCO, they introduced a special preset for the Chinese New Year. The preset – Neocha x VSCO – is described as “subtle and warm with an emphasis on reds, oranges, and yellows.” The preset is inspired by temples in Siem Reap, street fashion in Seoul, and skyscrapers in Hong Kong.
The colors perfectly align with the Chinese holiday, as red symbolizes good luck, orange happiness and prosperity, and yellow with luck and royalty.
The Neocha x VSCO preset is available to download in the app for a limited time only. Check out all the presets in the VSCO store here.
