Pantone's COY

2009 is just around the corner and with that, comes Pantone's yearly announcement of its "Color of the Year"....

Mimosa is the new color apparently...we shall be seeing a lot of it in '09...and rightfully so- I think we need a warm cheery color in these difficult times, don't ya think?

Mimosa is a complete turnaround from last year's dark and cold, Blue Iris


Which one do you prefer?

Mimosa, definitely... it's the colour of custard.

Mimosa - I love soft, warm colors - and in my new apartment (furnished completely by Door Store) I use a lot of white with splashes of mimosa for accent. The rooms are small but look much bigger with the contemporary pieces and clean lines. My area rug (purchased from doorstorefurniture.com) picks up the mimosa and unifies both rooms. It feels very clean and is restful at the same time. It's my haven.
