Graham & Brown Goes Emerald in 2013

Last year Graham & Brown celebrated the highly anticipated Pantone color of the year: the dramatic and energetic Tangerine Tango. We featured an assortment of Pantone-inspired designer wallpapers, wall art, and vibrant paints. Recently, Pantone announced the 2013 color of the Year: the oh-so sophisticated Emerald Green. In contrast to last year’s Tangerine Tango, Emerald Green is more subdued and elegant, meant to evoke a sense of calm.

Pantone describes Emerald as “Lively. Radiant. Lush… A color of elegance and beauty that enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony.” A symbol of prosperity, rejuvenation and tranquility, Emerald sets the tone for the year ahead, representing our hope for a thriving economy and eco-friendly world while reminding us to slow down and relax.

It’s natural to surround ourselves with a color destined to lift our spirits and bring us a bit of peace, which is why this harmonious hue is sure to be seen everywhere this year. Convinced that you could use a splash of this jewel tone around your home? Explore our featured Emerald designer wallpapers and chic home decor products below.
