This article does not have much to do with my beat, but does with graphic design. As designers we are always figuring out what colors to add to our work, a logo, a background and so on. So why not know what color is said to be the color for 2012 and a new trend. The article was very interesting to read and gave a lot of insight about the color, and the mood that it creates.
The article includes quotes about the color like "Tangerine Tango, an electric orange red, is
the color of 2012, according to the Pantone Color Institute, and I for one am extremely excited about the news. It’s warm, uplifting, and energizing".
This new fad is supposed to effect, "The vibrant shade has already made its way onto fashion
designers’ radars and surely there will be even more examples to come, as Pantone’s
predictions influence all manner of consumer product manufacturers from cosmetic companies to paint suppliers.".
The website that contains more information about this new trend, and even some fashion designs that incoporate it is at the following:http://shine.yahoo.com/the-thread/orange-you-glad-tangerine-tango-is-the-color-of-2012-.html
It says it looks good with any skin tone... I have yet to find any shade of orange that looks good with my skin tone.
ReplyDeleteI have also never seen a tangerine in that color haha.
