American colour company Pantone has announced their chosen “universal favourite” Classic Blue, or Pantone 19-4052, as its colour of the year for 2020.
As interpreted by Pantone, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue is of instilling calm, confidence, and connection. The timeless indigo hue is elegant in its simplicity. Suggestive of the sky at dusk, the 2020’s shade brings a sense of peace and tranquility to the human spirit offering refuge.
“It’s a colour that anticipates what’s going to happen next,” said Laurie Pressman, the vice president of the Pantone Colour institute, which selects the Colour of the Year. “What’s the future going to bring as we move into the evening hours?”
Will you be using the calming colour to start your year 2020?
