PANTONE® Color of the Year 2015: Marsala

The impactful, full-bodied qualities of PANTONE 18-1438 Marsala make for an elegant, grounded statement color when used on its own or as a strong accent to many other colors.

Marsala was just announced “Color of the year 2015” by the Pantone Color Institute® and serves as the foundation to the Spring/Summer 2015 palette. Sensual and bold, delicious Marsala is a daringly inviting tone that nurtures; exuding confidence and stability while feeding the body, mind and soul. Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this robust shade incorporates the warmth and richness of a tastefully fulfilling meal while it’s grounding red-brown roots point to a sophisticated, natural earthiness.

“Marsala is a subtly seductive shade, one that draws us in to its embracing warmth. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.”
