2010 Colour of the Year

We were delighted when Pantone recently announced that their forecasted 2010 colour of the year is Turquoise (Pantone 15-5519 TCX). At Sealy Design we've been using teals and turquoises as decor accents for some time now. Last year I used turquoise and lime green accents in our bungalow showroom. This year I used these same accents in the living room I designed for IKEA's nationwide “Any Space Can Be Beautiful” contest, which will be aired on CityLine on Jan 21st, 2010. This begs the question: where do trends actually start? A good designer will anticipate or even drive a trend before it has saturated the marketplace, ensuring that our work - and your home - always looks fresh and up-to-date.
