Tangerine Tango for 2012!

Pantone, the design world's authority on color has announced it's highly anticipated color of the year, Tangerine Tango. It's bold, it's exciting, dramatic and will dominate clothing, accessories and home decor in 2012!


Pantone Tangerine Tango....The Color for 2012

Tangerine Tango is deeper, bolder and more red then orange but pairs nicely with many of the same colors as does orange. It's reddish orange hue creates positive energy and warmth. You will be seeing it on the runway, in the fashion news along with home decor and furnishings. It's attention grabbing and surprisingly flexible so don't let this color intimidate you. As designers, we are thrilled with this choice and have a few tips to incorporate this color into your home.

Tip#1
If you decide that you love this bold new color and would like to use it in an entire room, do not hesitate. It is warm, cheerful, inviting and you can tone it down a little with neutral accents of Khaki, Greys, Tans and Blacks if you are just a little apprehensive.


Tip #2
Use Tangerine Tango as an accent wall in a warm cozy nook to add pop to your space.


Or in a kitchen used sparingly to create warmth and interest.



Tip #3

If you love the color but not enough to use it boldly, add accessories to create the small pops in your room. As you can see, it mixes well with many colors that most people already have in their home like Navy, Grey, Eggplant, Khaki, Greens and more!

Tip # 4
Tangerine Tango is a great accent to the front of your home. Use it on your door to draw guests to your home when your home is a neutral color like grey, khaki or brown. It will set your home apart from the others!



And finally, in fashion, pair it up with super saturated colors to create a color block look or layer it under neutrals. Anything goes with this bold color! Look for Tangerine Tango lip and nail color next year to add an extra level of pop!
