Pantone has announced 2015’s color of the year: Marsala. “A naturally robust and earthy wine red, Marsala enriches our minds, bodies and souls. The impactful, full-bodied qualities of Marsala make for an elegant, grounded statement color when used on its own or as a strong accent to many other colors,” says Pantone.

Whether you decide to drape your home in the new color of the year or just add a touch a new color, here are our suggestions on how to coordinate and complement MARSALA!

Cole & Son’s Woods Wallpaper:  The black and white trees are a neutral design that looks great with any color especially the earthy marsala. Add marsala colored pillows, throw or duvet to this room scene.
