Color Combinations
Inspired By Nature
Every year during this time the three Giants of Color announce their picks for Color of the Year.
Pantone 2015 Color of the Year
Marsala 18-1438
Sherwin Williams 2015 Color of the Year Coral Reef SW6606  Benjamin Moore 2015 Color of the Year Guilford Green HC-116  These colors will aide the design industry, the fashion industry, the floral industry and many other consumer-oriented companies guide their designs and planning for future products.
But let's face it...color is a very personal matter. So when it comes to the homes where we live,as far as I'm concern, anything goes. In good design, color plays only a partial role. So whatever the combination, if it works in harmony with balance and scale, any color combination can feel just right.
Fortunately, we have lots or inspiration at our finger tips. All you need to do is look to Nature. Nature's color combinations are classic, elegant, bold, serene, loud and inspiring...and anything goes! A few combinations, however, are more popular than others. Here are 8 glorious color combinations inspired by Nature.
Gray & Yellow
 One of my favorites!

Orange & White
This combo is perfect for this fun, energetic teen room, but works just as well in a more sophisticated living room setting.

Stunning and dramatic!

Pink & Green
When I was 21 my friends gave my twin sister and I a surprise party. Everything was pink and green...the cake, the beer, the decorations, even the guests all dressed up in pink and green. To top it off, the song Crimson and Clover was a big hit at the time. So you can imagine, I'm a bit saturated with this color combination...
Still, the perfect combo for a little girl's rooms.

A white room is indeed a luxury. It's also the ultimate in sophistication! Unfortunately it does come with practical limitations, but if your circumstances allow you to surround yourself in white, you are indeed fortunate....
