The Color Orange

For fall, the color orange is popping up everywhere, from red carpets to runways and interiors alike. The psychology of orange is optimistic and uplifting, even rejuvenating, like the sweet fruit originally brought from China and India.

Historically orange is associated with nobility. In the Netherlands, it is the color of the Dutch Royal Family, dating back to Willem van Oranje (William of Orange). During the Elizabethan Era in England, only the aristocracy was permitted to wear this hue, since the bright color represented an elevated social standing and wealth.

Today, the inviting, autumnal color can be used for chic accents and bright focal points that are inspiring both fashion and interior design. Schumacher offers a stunning variety orange fabrics and wallcoverings for both classic and modern interiors.
