Pantone names Classic Blue as Colour of the Year 2020
If you’re thinking of an interiors overhaul to mark the new year, you might want to take inspiration from Pantone’s stunning choice for Colour of the Year 2020: Classic Blue.
Described as a '“timeless and enduring hue, elegant in its simplicity”, we think Classic Blue would make the perfect choice to bring a sense of peace and tranquility to a living room or bedroom. Whether you’re feeling like a feature wall, want to go bold and paint the whole room in the new shade, or just want a hint of the shade by bringing in some furniture pieces and accessories, there’s a whole host of options available to bring your interiors bang on-trend for 2020.
But it’s not just about the colour itself; Pantone has hinted that its choice of colour for 2020 is more than aesthetic, it’s about the state of the nation too…
“We are living in a time that requires trust and faith. It is this kind of constancy and confidence that is expressed by PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue, a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “Imbued with a deep resonance, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue provides an anchoring foundation. A boundless blue evocative of the vast and infinite evening sky, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue encourages us to look beyond the obvious to expand our thinking; challenging us to think more deeply, increase our perspective and open the flow of communication.”
