Mardi Grape is the color of 2010

Nothing says classy like a room that looks like it was sprayed down with Purple Drank.
Color Marketing Group has predicted the hot decorating color for 2010 will be Mardi Grape, a sophisticated crossover between purple, brown and gray.
According to CMG, look for these additional color trends in 2010:
Red – Reds are strong with pink intuition; bright and clean with energy and excitement -- a
clean pop to go with neutrals.
Orange – A rich, sophisticated color that moves away from earth-based colors to an optimistic
orange, seasoned with a touch of gray.
Yellow – A greener, more natural yellow, softened with gray.
Green – Optimistic and uplifting, a clear and bright accent green with a slight shift toward blue.
Blue – A saturated blue with gray influences; rich without being too luxe.
Beige-Brown – A true chameleon to complement darker hues, it can be either matte or metallic.
Neutral-Gray – Gray with a touch of purple, drawing inspiration from mineral, concrete and
steel.
