When it comes to color, it seems everyone else is at sea. There are some new attempts, however, to bring the foundering safely to shore. For kitchen, bath and foyer, a new program from Armstrong offers pre-selected, color-coordinated vinyl flooring, fabrics and wallpaper, paint and laminate in five color schemes black and white, green, blue, pink and deep rose. Some new flooring colors were added, but the selections generally rely on popular fabric and wallcoverings by Waverly, paint by Benjamin Moore and laminates by Wilsonart 'The strength of the coordinates program is that it is a confidence builder for consumers," says Thomas Hills Cook, Armstrong's head of interior design. "Using color as a vehicle, it takes the guesswork out of combining flooring and other home furnishings." Help is widely available via a brochure with 15 alternate schemes for kitchen, bathroom and foyer and displays in about 6,000 Armstrong retail stores and 4,000 shops nationwide carrying Waverly products.

Meanwhile, Country Home magazine's goal is to help readers select colors characteristic of country decor. "Not all colors work in country design," says Can-dace Ord Manroe, the magazine's interior design director. "For example, fuschia and any colors that smack of chemical pigments aren't usually successful. Country is associated with softer, more natural colors." In its October issue, the magazine puts its imprimatur on a palette of 25 country colors organized into five families of five colors each, with suggestions for textures and patterns. "We didn't start with products," Ms.

Manroe says. "We started with the colors that are traditional and then went out and found existing products that fit into those palettes." For each of its five palettes, the magazine's designers created and photographed a room. The rooms demonstrate workable schemes for a variety of country styles such as Mediterranean country, arts and crafts, New England colonial and contemporary country. Some hues have been updated for today's tastes. For example, a clear cornflower blue replaces a muddier Prussian blue typical of the 18th century.

Osgood award for Out-standing Senior in the astrophysics-physics department He was awarded an associateship from Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, where he will worked toward a doctorate in astrophysics. He is a 1989 graduate of St Clair High School. He is the son of Philip and Patricia Ventimiglia of Fort Gratiot For those of some financial means, Donald Kaufman is ready to help match an imagined or remembered color whose richness never seems to show up on the charts. That's because most paints have the fewest pigments possible to create the desired color, says Mr. Kaufman, author of Color: Natural Palettes for Painted Rooms, (Clarkson Potter, 1992, $50).

The secret to more complex and luminous colors, then, is a paint formula with more pigments, including tiny amounts of several colors and their complements. Mr. Kaufman has been creating such custom paints for museums, corporate offices and residences for 15 years. He now has a ready-mix collection of 30 full-spectrum "custom" colors. These come premixed by the gallon in latex and alkyd formulas and in five finishes ranging from matte to gloss.

There are also small jars of pigments called color concentrates which can be added to latex paint. Of the 30 colors, 23 are neutrals, each complementary to every other in the collection. This makes it easier to put a palette together that will work, Mr. Kaufman says. The other seven colors are those often hard-to-find stunners such as paper bag brown, chamois, eucalyptus and apple green.

The paint is sold via mail order. Prices, plus shipping, range from $39.95 to $59.95 for a premixed gallon, depending on finish and depth of color, and $19.95 to $29.95 for the concentrate. There are also two sets of swatch cards at $19.95 each. Lexington United, Methodist Church A bazaar will be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
