Link to the challenge:

Currently, var(--building-color1) is not added to any property. You need to add it to background-color property.

How do i add var(–building-color1) to background-color property, please?

add a background-color property to the .bb1a selector and give it the value: var(–building-color1);

Apologies but…
Still clueless about what i’m doing!
haven’t been able to move forward in days
Please help!!!

var(–building-color1); .bb1a{background-color:#999; width: 70%;
height: 10%;}

Add:

background-color: var(–building-color1);

to the.bb1a selector in CSS.
