Let’s count it off: Orange walls, orange curtains, and an orange light fixture. And orange art on top of that. Am I missing anything? Not that there’s anything wrong with orange – I had orange walls in the foyer of my Boston apartment, so I can see the allure. But personally, I prefer my fully saturated orange softened with a little something, like gray or soft teals and browns or maybe even just a whole lot of creamy white.

But for those who want MAXIMUM ORANGE in the kitchen and dining areas, here’s a jumping off point:

    Too Home Depot meets Hello Kitty for me. A little orange goes a long way and this goes for light years.
