Get Ready to Tango!

Pantone, considered the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries has announced the color of the year.

It’s Tangerine Tango, a spirited reddish

orange,  intended to provide an energy boost

 we need to recharge.

“Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic

 and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®.   “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness
and warmth of yellow,  to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”

This  lively, juicy  color is certainly a provocative attention-getter,  and is especially appealing in the world of  fashion.

So,   how are designers using using this color in the home? 

Although it is exuberant and perhaps even an optimistic color, my preference is for the color of the year chosen by Benjamin Moore…Wythe Blue, which will be covered in another post. 

 But today let’s talk about Tango Tangerine.  How do you feel about this lively color?

 Until next time, Honey
