Pantone, Inc., the world’s leading authority on color, has announced a Color of the Year for 2012 -- Tangerine Tango 17-1463, a high-energy reddish orange with lots of Wow. They say it’s “an adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow” in a combination that is magnetic. That’s for sure!
