fall color: tomato & tangerine in home decor


As a lover of neutrals, I can be intimidated by bright colors - and tangerine and tomato are the brightest colors in this season's Pantone palette!  However, I love the idea of adding orange and red accents to a neutral room for fall!  I especially love these colors when they're used to create an eclectic, bohemian style.

Switching in an orange or red rug could be a quick way to update for fall and completely change the energy of a room.  I like the quirky, collected style of this room from Five Days Five Ways.



I'm loving this West Elm dhurrie rug's fall colors, and the modern shapes are on trend.

Wow!  A tangerine sofa has amazing impact in a room that pairs traditional elegance with Moroccan-influenced light fixture, side tables, and ottoman.  The room was designed by Kattie Ridder, via The Rustic Modernist.

This is a creative lounge space created for a wedding reception featured on Ruffled, but wouldn't it be cool to have a chalkboard wall in the living room paired with orange accessories and tribal prints?

Bold tomato gallery wall via Apartment Therapy - the white trim is so unexpected!  For similar impact without as much commitment, you could replace neutral mats in black or white photo frames with matching brightly colored ones!
