Examples of Honeysuckle

January 17, 2011

Did you know that the color for 2011, projected by Pantone Color Corporation, is Honeysuckle? This may be old news to some in the interior design field but I got to thinking about how undefined this color really is.

Honeysuckle is one of my favorite flowers, particularly for it’s fragrance. I have it growing in my garden and it always reminds me of sunny spring and summer days when its pleasant scent wafts through the open windows when it starts blooming. Seeing honeysuckle close-up, have you ever noticed how many colors create the flower? Not only are there multiple colors of pink but there are varying shades, hues and color shifts. It’s a beautiful flower but it’s not one color and therefore, undefined.

I think honeysuckle can mean various shades of orange, pink, and magenta and in combination with citrus yellows, oranges and whites.

Here’s Pantone’s version of Honeysuckle:

Note the caption, ” Energizing Honeysuckle lifts spirits and imparts confidence to meet life’s ongoing challenges,” could this be reflective of our current economic times?

As I got to looking, there are many examples of honeysuckle in interior design. In fact, we used these two within our Pink! and Think Pink blog post and on Houzz (and they have been added to 144 and 445 ideabooks, respectively, thus far).

I personally like pairing pink with tones of green, turquoise, orange, white and brown. (My childhood room was pink and green until I painted it orange.) Here are some more fun examples.

Long before this color has become popular, we used a version of it in one of Mary Douglas Drysdale’s room designs.

Honeysuckle is proving to be quite a versatile color and an exciting one for 2011, afterall.
