Ann Mack of the creative agency JWT predicted:"Saturated carnival colors - blues, oranges, greens and yellows - will replace 2009's paler palette; think Cirque du Soleil and Alice in Wonderland."
The turquoise and orange combo fits this description perfectly!

I love the variety of styles created with the same color palette: everything from the relaxed beach cottage feel to tufted tailored glamour! And one thing pops up consistently in each of these rooms; white! I think the touches of white {whether through accessories, furnishings, or on the walls} does so much to enhance the palette. One thing’s for sure…whether bold and punchy, or soft and subtle, I am loving this color combo!

Such a fabulous colour combo! A great post of yours! Thanks for the inspiration!
I am right there with you loving this color combo! Completely agree with you that the white is what makes it all pop! Amazing round up!
That's so interesting! When I had my blog redesigned, I knew I wanted turquoise and orange. Who knew I was being influenced by the hot colors of the year? :)
This is a Beautiful post, Nancy! I adore turquoise and orange. Thanks so much for linking to my first Traveling Designer feature. I hope you stayed tuned for more of my travels around the country and the globe.

Love this color combo - my dining room is in this color family! Thanks for sharing FABULOUS photos!
Turquoise & orange is a great colour combo, and all these gorgeous rooms prove it!!
I guess I'm also being secretly influenced by the trend, considering the colours I'm contemplating for my front door :-) And yesterday, I bought a beautiful pair of orange, turquoise, and green earrings from Etsy :-)

Nancy very well done post!! It shows great use of both colors.I knew about the turquouise like you said, and I noticed orange everywhere but you have put it together for me in a wonderful post. I love turquoise but not a fan of orange. Long story, goes way back!!! Give me yellow and I am fine but never ever orange for this gal. Happy weekend, Kathysue
One of my absolutely fave color combos =)
Too funny that you and theLennoxx did a post about turquoise. I am not a fan of orange but it does look really great with turquoise. However, I love the coral and turquoise porch - so tropical!

I love the colors! I'm a huge Pantone fan, and as a designer, use the system quite often. I cannot get over the third from last photo -- that space is just beyond stunning... the seating area and the curtain -- wow! Thanks for sharing these :)
Hope you have a great weekend*

ORANGE!! I love orange!! But you know that ;-) If I could, I would use turquoise as an accent in my dining room, but the drapery calls for a fresh apple green... I think it will be fab too! I think I'll use orange and turquoise in my family room, though... when I HAVE a family room that is! Love the chairs Ashley Whittaker used in that dining room... inspiration for your dining room table perhaps?!
