Pantone, the world’s leading color authority, just declared their Color of the Year 2019, Living Coral.
Putting value on inventiveness and imagination, color experts pick Ultra Violet for 2018. This blue-based purple embraced exploration of new technology and the greater galaxy. Living Coral does the opposite; it shifts the focus to life on Earth. The transition from a happy, bright blue-purple hue to a vibrant, mellow orange-pink hue is fitting as we have been plowing on the surface of a digital environment, which begs the need for us to build deep relationships and to immerse ourselves in our natural environment.

“In reaction to the onslaught of digital technology and social media increasingly embedding into daily life, we are seeking authentic and immersive experiences that enable connection and intimacy. Sociable and spirited, the engaging nature of PANTONE 16-1546 Living Coral welcomes and encourages lighthearted activity. Symbolizing our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits, PANTONE 16-1546 Living Coral embodies our desire for playful expression.”
