Marsala, a naturally robust and earthy wine red, is the Color of the Year for 2015.

 It’s a rich, warm fabulous earth red.  I have a few very special clients who will likely love this new delicious color.

They love RED!

Perhaps the inspiration came from the wine itself…….One of my fav dishes is Chicken Marsala, it’s cooked in the wine and loaded with mushrooms.  I serve it with steamed rice, but some prefer to serve it with mashed potatoes.

Red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.” (pantone.com)

If you are looking for a few ideas for adding this color to your lifestyle….Here are a few.

  1. Add a bit of spicy-ness to your decor by updating the upholstery on a chair or sofa.
  2. Up the romance factor in a master suite by painting one wall in Marsala, consider new bedding in tones of  grey  or charcoal and top with pillows in the Marsala hues.
  3. An area rug can ground and define a space in your home particularly one deep and rich as Marsala.
  4. Infuse a pop of robust color to a tired room by adding accent tables, a couple of table lamps and art to give it  a refresh.

Tones of Marsala can be found in unsuspecting places.  Challenge yourself to add a little Marsala to your home….You’ll be right on trend.
