Pantone’s Color of the Year 2015 – Meet Marsala

written by Rebecca E. Parsons

It’s that time of year that we all await…the release of Pantone’s Color of the Year for the coming year. So it is here…

PANTONE 18-1438 Marsala

PMS Marsala 2015 Color of the Year

Interesting on its own and a wonderful contrast for other hues, PANTONE 18-1438 Marsala serves as the foundation to the Spring/Summer 2015 palette. Sensual and bold, delicious Marsala is a daringly inviting tone that nurtures; exuding confidence and stability while feeding the body, mind and soul. Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this robust shade incorporates the warmth and richness of a tastefully fulfilling meal, while its grounding red-brown roots point to a sophisticated, natural earthiness. –Leatrice EisemanExecutive Director, Pantone Color Institute

What Will I Do With Marsala?

The reddish-brown color pairs well with: PANTONE 14-4102 Glacier Gray and PANTONE 14-4313 Aquamarine. It reminds me of terra-cotta tiles with a twist. It is a burgundy, but not the burgundy of the 1980s or 90s. It has rose undertones and will make a good neutral. 

I am not a brown lover. As an artist it just does not do anything for my colorful eye. I prefer bright and happy colors. Marsala does not seem happy to me. I will probably not be rushing out to find the perfect Marsala accessories. I am not much of a trend follower. I love the beachy spectrum in home and fashion.

What can you do with Marsala?
