Last month, the Institute of Pantone announced the Pantone color of the year 2020, the classic blue.
´`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. Imbued with a deep resonance, Classic Blue provides an anchoring foundation. A boundless blue evocative of the vast and infinite evening sky, 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.´`
Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute
Described as ´`a reassuring presence instilling calm, confidence and connection´`, the Classic Blue is simple and timeless, bringing a sense of peace and tranquillity to the human spirit.
It is interpreted as the ´`anti-anxiety blue´` because it ´`highlights our desire for a dependable and stable foundation on which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era´`, according to Pantone.
The new color of the year, which is already being used in fashion, interior design, textiles and graphic design, sets the tone to promote a luxury feeling in the new decade. Simple yet elegant, the classic blue can be easily combined with different materials, colors and textures.
