Color of the Moment - Saffron

This summer we have been obsessed with a color that we best describe as "saffron." It's a lovely, warm blend of yellow and orange, with a slightly neutral undertone. That slight undertone allows it to be used in larger doses without overpowering a room. It is simply delectable when paired with cool grays and blues, or even a rich shade of emerald. Below are a couple of sneak peeks where we have used it in recent spaces.







Maybe it's the imminent cool weather, or the first change in leaves that has us transitioning to fall, but I don't think we will be saying goodbye to this color anytime soon. It transitions so well from season to season, and seems to be cropping up in more places. 


1. Rose Tarlow - Eaton Arm Chair
2. Oly Studio - Fez Table Lamp
3. Rose Tarlow - Arabesque in Pompeii on Saffron
4. Hillary Thomas - Rock n' Rolla Finial
5. John Robshaw - Sun Pillow
6. Dwell Studio - Citrine Green Watercolor
7. Coyuchi - Mediterranean Bath Towel
8. West Elm - Linen Cotton Blend Bedding

Now that I think of it, Pumpkin Spice Lattes would blend so nicely into this scheme. Well, who can say no to that?!
