Hey I do this in my bedroom! I have an orange stripe in my duvet cover, an orangey coral-poppy raw silk throw pillow,and a large piece of artwork that features the color. Then in the hall just outside the room I have another piece hanging that has a bunch of that same tone of orange. It really is mood enhancing!

I find his tuff to be very 1970"s looking and that is a period of interior design that should be forgotten!

I know people love him, but none of his designs are his own ideas and it all looks like it is from the '70s. not a good time for design.
