August 2025 Color of the Month: Burnt Orange (#CC5500)
Burnt orange, the August 2025 Color of the Month, is more than just a shade—it’s a mood. This rich blend of reddish-orange with earthy brown undertones radiates warmth and character, instantly evoking images of golden autumn leaves, glowing sunsets, and the comfort of a cozy fire. It’s a color that feels alive yet grounded, offering just the right balance between energy and calm.
When used in interiors, burnt orange brings spaces to life with a sense of depth and sophistication. Picture an accent wall that makes your living room feel instantly warmer, kitchen cabinets that pop without overpowering, or textiles like rugs and throws that add a subtle, stylish punch. Pair it with creamy whites, deep navy, or warm neutrals for a look that feels timeless yet fresh.
Outdoors, burnt orange can be a bold yet tasteful choice that instantly boosts curb appeal. A front door in this hue offers a warm welcome, while shutters, trim, or outdoor furniture in burnt orange add personality and charm. Its earthy undertones allow it to harmonize beautifully with natural surroundings, whether your home sits by the coast, in the city, or among rolling hills.
