Marsala
is Pantone’s color of the year for 2015. This deep wine color is a fantastic
option to use throughout your home this summer. Colors that pair well with this
hue include soft blues and crisp whites. It is good to keep a deep, rich color
like this one, balanced with lighter more airy tones. Below are some examples
of great uses of this fantastic color in the home.

Lucite
green is another one of Pantone’s top picks for 2015. This hue is a soft green
that is almost a mint green, but with a little less blue. This is a fantastic
color to use in your home this summer because it is a very tranquil and calming
color that pairs well with many other shades. Lucite green pairs beautifully
with blues, especially in the aqua/turquoise family. It also looks great with
bright, saturated accent colors like the fuchsia used in one of the photos
shown below.

Bold
blues are great choices to go with to refresh your home’s décor this summer.
This is a dynamic color that can take your home in a number of different
directions depending on what you pair it with. If you are looking to really
make an impact, you can pair it with another bold and saturated color like
tangerine, which is its color complement. If you would rather make the bold
blue be the biggest impact itself, pair it with more muted neutrals like soft
gray or ivory and then include small accents in a complementary hue.
