Pantone Colour of the Year 2022 A merging of our physical and digital lives
It’s official: PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri - an inspiring shade of blue with a reddish-violet undertone - is the 2022 PANTONE Colour of the Year. And the Pantone Institute has also announced four exciting colour palettes that harmonise beautifully with Very Peri: 'Amusements', 'Wellspring', 'Balancing Act', and last but not least, 'The Star of the Show'.
PANTONE Very Peri
PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri represents the fusion of physical and digital life. It was created as a colour symbol to match the 'global zeitgeist'. Lamps and shades in Very Peri are set to be huge this year. But not only that, when combined with soft furnishings and decoration of the same colour, you’ll create a calming oasis to relax in again and again.
Amusements
The Amusements palette is fun and imaginative. Lights ranging from pink flambé to tawny orange convey joy, spontaneity and confidence. While smart lamps and lights with multicolour functions inspire freedom of expression and experimentation.
Wellspring
The Wellspring colour palette goes in the direction of field and forest and includes harmonious green tones and nuances such as chai tea, dewberry and eggshell blue. In combination with PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri, this results in a lighting atmosphere that’s gentle, relaxing and feel-good.
Balancing Act
The Balancing Act palette creates a balance of warm and cool tones. Lotus, Granite Green and Elderberry look artistic when combined with Very Peri. And for the perfect lighting balance, add a bit of homely character with glare-free, warm white light.
The Star of the Show
PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri shows its dynamism when combined with The Star of the Show colour palette. The palette is made up of contrasting classic and neutral tones that, when used alongside Veri Peri, create a clean, fresh look that’s stylish and modern.
