You may have heard by now (since it is already July) that Pantone, the authority on color and the standard setter for the design industry, announced way back in December 2008, that 14-0848 Mimosa would be the color of the year for 2009.
According to the Pantone website... "In a time of economic uncertainty and political change, optimism is paramount and no other color expresses hope and reassurance more than yellow. The color yellow exemplifies the warmth and nurturing quality of the sun, properties we as humans are naturally drawn to for reassurance. Mimosa also speaks to enlightenment, as it is a hue that sparks imagination and innovation."
Okay...
I clearly remember seeing a lot of yellow at the 2008 Spring Market in High Point, NC. In fact, I recall commenting on it to a rep as I meandered through the Sherrill showroom, but...
What do you think of the color? Do you agree with the description by Pantone? Most importantly, is it a color that you could see yourself using in your own home?
