India goes Madder this year.

Asian Paints Colour Next 2016 has named the Colour of the Year for 2016 as the Madder Red.
(the name is derived from the plant which is a common source of the pigment red)





A nuanced version of the Pantone Colour of the Year for 2015 - Marsala Red?





Madder is different from Marsala.
I love Madder for its boldness, not just in the name :)
Marsala was boring. Madder is powerful.
