Every December, Pantone chooses the next "it" Color of the Year.
Pantone is the world-renowned authority on color and has a superior color matching system that was developed to solve the problem of creating accurate matches in the graphic arts world.
If you have ever experienced
picking out a color for paint or created a design on your computer, only
to have the final product look completely different than what you saw,
the Pantone color matching process is the answer to that.
For 2012, they have named Tangerine Tango as the Color of the Year. This is a vibrant, "spirited, reddish orange", according to Pantone, and I can see that it will be quite popular. First, it can be found in the fashion world and then in the home decor arena. From purses and shoes to pots and pans, this hue is everywhere. Take a look!
The process of choosing the
color of the year is quite an ordeal. Pantone employees look the world
over for color influences in media, music, and art, searching for the
hues that most affect people. With the digital age well underway, they
also look at designs created electronically.
When it comes to flowers, the possibilities are truly endless. There are over one hundred orange roses a florist can use, and one in particular, Arabia, is the perfect match for Tangerine Tango.
Look for this hue to pop up everywhere this year!
