To me this feels like a "safe" color after last years debate about the coral reef and the Living Coral (PANTONE 16-1546) choice. Still it will be debated and argued heavily as always I suspect. Personally I think it's a good choice. It's calm, solid and as I said, safe. Not a bad choice in a day and age where chaos seem to reign unchecked...

What do you think? Is it a good choice?
