The Shining - Overlook Hotel - Pin badge

What it’s referencing

- The top pattern is the iconic hexagonal carpet design from the Overlook Hotel in The Shining (the Stanley Kubrick film).
- The layout and text style mimic a Pantone colour swatch, the standard colour‑matching system used in design and printing.

What the pin is

A Pantone-style parody pin themed around The Shining.
The text “PANTONE RM.237 Overlook Hotel” is a nod to:
- Room 237, the infamous room in the film
- The Overlook Hotel, where the story takes place
- “Pantone” as the design format being spoofed

It’s basically a clever pop‑culture crossover: graphic design humour + horror movie reference.

If you want, I can tell you where these usually come from or what other designs exist in the same style.
