The Pantone Colour Of The Year For 2020 Is 'Classic Blue'
WHAT IS PANTONE’S COLOUR OF THE YEAR FOR 2020?
The anticipation is finally over: we had a sneak preview alluding to Neon Mint, Urban Pink Pastels and daring deep ochre’s, but finally Pantone have released their eagerly awaited 2020 colour of the year. The confirmed choice was something of a surprise but a most welcomed one: ‘Classic Blue’ Pantone number: 19-4052, the global universal staple.
There is so much richness and depth in this blue and teamed with the dynamism of a red undertone it offers a wealth of variety in its use across interiors, fashion, Art & Design. This timeless classic transcends fashion and trends and is an anchor staple that you can mix with literally everything!
Classic Blue speaks to versatility and has an emblematic heritage, it is distinctive and extraordinary in its presence, and evokes feelings of trust, calmness, peaceful tranquillity, warmth, soothing and thoughtfulness whilst all combined with universal qualities of modernity, elegance and refinement.
Pantone have set Classic Blue admirably against a selection of rich accents. It was fantastic to see their colour releases support SPEAK’s 2019 predicted and recommended accents for 2020, confirmed by Pantone: stand out shades include: Brass Knuckle and Pixie, the best part about this colour palette is you can quite literally never fail.
