PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating.
(A marriage of color conveying a message of strength and hopefulness that is both enduring and uplifting.)
Colors are so important to our every experience. Even when we don’t notice them, there they are, shaping a place or supporting a visual with warmth or coolness, brightness or darkness, similarity, or contrast.
The power of color comes from how we think and feel when we see them. From historically created meanings to deep-set biological reactions, we give a story to color as color gives substance to our visual world.
And after all the turbulence of 2020, we're looking forward to a fresh start and ways to add color to our lives in the new year. Paint companies and color pros understand that.
Each year, they single out a shade that perfectly captures the current moment in design, gathering insights from pop culture, fashion, architecture, and technology trends.
