Pantone has selected Tangerine Tango as the color of the year for 2012 and I couldn't be more excited. The color of the year for 2011 was Honeysuckle Pink, I blogged about it here. This last year, I've really been into Orange and it's good to know there will be a lot more of it in the upcoming year. Jeff will be happy because Orange is one of his favorite colors.
Here's the description of the color of the year from the Pantone website.
Tangerine Tango, a spirited reddish orange, continues to provide the energy boost we need to recharge and move forward.
Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it. 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.”
How fun would it to be to work at Pantone and help decide the color of the year?
Here are are some examples of Tangerine Tango.
