Pantone Redux: La Lune’s Fall 2016 Color Picks

We had so much fun last year making our Pantone “color picks” for Fall 2015 that we jumped at the chance to repeat the project for Fall 2016.

The Pantone Color Institute, acknowledged as the world’s authority on color, has been inspiring design professionals with ‘products, services, and leading technology for colorful exploration’ for over 50 years’.  Recently Pantone issued its Fall 2016 Color Report – and here’s what they have to say about this Fall’s color picks: “The desire for tranquility, strength, and optimism has inspired a Fall 2016 color palette – along with anchoring earth tones, exuberant pops of vibrant colors also appear throughout the collections. Transcending gender, these unexpectedly vivacious colors in our Fall 2016 palette act as playful but structured departures from your more typical fall shades.”

Join us as La Lune Collection’s beautiful rustic furniture takes a trip down the color runway in Pantone’s top five Fall 2016 color picks!

Pantone Potter's Clay1. Pantone “Potter’s Clay”

“POTTER’S CLAY has an added degree of sophistication and layering. With elements of russet orange in its undertones, it gives a grounded feeling that’s anything but flat.”

Pantone's Sharkskin2. Pantone “Sharkskin”

“There’s an edge to SHARKSKIN, and yet it manages to remain neutral, pair-able with almost any fall color, bright or muted. It’s a color that the rest of the palette can literally and theoretically rest on.”

“In contrast to the stable backbone of the Fall 2016 palette, AURORA RED adds a welcome punch. A bold Red that is warm, sensual and immediately pleasing to the eye, it gets the metaphorical blood of the palette pumping.”
