BlueStar Introduces Pro Appliances in Marsala, the 2015 Pantone Color of the Year
Reading, Pa. (PRWEB) January 06, 2015 -- BlueStar®, manufacturer of restaurant-quality cooking equipment for the home and a leader in color and customization for appliances, introduces a new custom color in the Pantone® 2015 Color of the Year, Marsala.
For 15 years, Pantone’s Color of the Year has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries, including fashion, home and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design. The 2015 Pantone Color of the Year, Marsala, offers a warm, rich and robust flavor to many settings. This tasteful color is made up of rich reds and browns for a sophisticated, natural earthiness. According to Pantone, it is a hearty, yet stylish tone that is universally appealing in fashion, beauty, home furnishings, interiors and appliances.
“Marsala is a great choice for kitchen accessories, and in the case of BlueStar, professional appliances,” says BlueStar Vice President of Marketing Eliza Sheffield. “This shade makes for an elegant and handsome statement piece, or as an accent (think oven knobs). Consumers are looking for new ideas to help make their kitchens be more personalized, so having unique options like on-trend colors is truly exciting."
Marsala also gives a nod to foodies and their culture. “There is a huge interest today in food, whether that means tasting, wine pairing, eating in restaurants featuring top chefs, and perhaps most important, the enthusiastic interest in preparing great meals at home,” Sheffield says. “This color is both grounding and appetizing, whether used on its own or with other ‘ingredients’ in the kitchen and throughout the home.”
