2010 Colour of the Year - Turquoise

Every year Pantone announces its Colour of the Year. The winner this year is Turquoise!

According to their press release, turquoise "evokes thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a languorous, effective escape from the everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of wellbeing."


I've always been a huge fan of turquoise, whether as a wall colour or accent colour.

Below are some inspiration images I've been collecting over the years of my favourite interiors which incorporate this beautiful colour.




The above images are from fashion designer Liz Lange's home featured in House Beautiful, which was designed by the wonderful Jonathan Adler.
