PANTONE 2012 Color of The Year: Pantone 17-1463 Tangerine Tango

I have always adored orange and coral colors.  If you have not heard, Tangerine Tango is the Pantone color for 2012.  Please see below the quote from the Pantone Institute about this years recipient:

“Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”


I could not agree more!  Below are images of tangerine for inspiration...
