The other night I was watching The Holiday…one of the all time best chick flicks ever! What’s even better, is that the movie contains some amazing design elements. I had completely forgotten about the amazing emerald green draperies in the office. I’m pretty sure I gasped when I saw them again. Yes…design can surely take my breath away.
Other emerald green furnishings that I have been gushing over are velvet sofas. They are so rich and can literally be almost the only color in the room and completely hold their own. In fact I think that my favorite look for green velvet is to really have it be the star of the show. The surrounding colors be simple and neutral so that the green really pops.

So when I found out that Pantone named 2013 Color Of the Year Emerald you can say I was one happy designer. I’m looking forward to 2013 and hoping I have opportunities to infuse it in my designs.
