Pantone, the world’s leading color authority, predicts this is the shade we will see this year in everything from homes and gardens to fashion, makeup and nail color.
A reddish orange with an exotic energy, Tangerine Tango is a high-impact hue. “Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute.
Wake up ready to go each morning in a bright sunny bedroom by adding throw pillows or even changing out your bedding. Find accents and appliances for your kitchen or scour antique co-ops for 70s-era vintage finds.
Want a really inexpensive way to energize your living space? Simply paint an accent wall. You can match the exact shade on Pantone’s website, or select something close at a local paint store. It would make a perfect pop of color in a neutral bathroom, or for something simpler, just change your towels. And don’t forget, you can add the color of the year to your outdoor living space, too—from garden accessories to plant choices and more!
