Orange

According to Kate Spade New York, May is the month of Orange. My brother in law will be happy about this - it is his favourite colour. I'm liking it too - enjoy this cute video celebrating this vibrant colour.

Colour - Seafoam

One of the desired aspects from the movie, Something Gotta Give that I have from a client is the 'seafoam' wall colour found in Diane Keaton's character, Erica's bedroom. So the hunt is on to find the muted soft grey green that will suit. I found some other interiors with the same colour - looks great in a beach house and a gentleman's living room.

This looks like it may be an advertisment or a styled set to show off a selection of colours - however, I really like the composition and how the colours come together. This would be great in an all-white house and you get a pleasant colourful surprise when you enter the kitchen. This image is by stylist Lo Bjurulf.

Pantone Colour 2011 - Honeysuckle

In November, Pantone annouced the colour for the year 2011. It is the bold 'Honeysuckle' -
"Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through the year. It’s a color for every day – with nothing “everyday” about it.
A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life."
So if you thinking that you need something uplifting in your interiors- a small dose of Honeysuckle will be 2011's way to go.
