Pantone color of the year. A feeling of hopefulness, a message of strength.

Moods, thoughts, tastes, preferences… Colors act and psychologically influence a broad part of our daily lives.

We are now at the end of a difficult year, terribly cruel and completely unstable; we all need to re-believe in a clearer and more prosperous future.

That dose of optimism comes to us fully from the Pantone Institute, true masters of color. Yes, there is life and illusion for 2021…

PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating. Because hope is the last thing to lose, discover the wonderful strength of the new colour of the year…

Pantone Color Institute. The color of our lives.

Created in the 1960s, the Pantone Institute dominates the world through its universal color language. With a chromatic identification system, it dictates each year the color that will mark trends in the future.

Society, travel, leisure, fashion, culture… The experts of colors study many factors carefully. The color of the year is first and foremost a reflection of the global situation that aims to leave us with a clear and very powerful message.

In an emotional speech, Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute; revealed the ambitious chromatic pairing that will accompany us throughout 2021.

“The union of an enduring Ultimate Gray with the vibrant yellow Illuminating expresses a message of positivity supported by fortitude. Practical and rock solid but at the same time warming and optimistic, this is a color combination that gives us resilience and hope. We need to feel encouraged and uplifted, this is essential to the human spirit.” Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute

Combining hues, joining strengths…

Solidity, stability, resilience, reliability… Ultimate Gray hides a firm and eternal foundation. A stocky gray which gives us strength and wraps us into resilience.

Brightness, effervescence, vivacity, joy… Illuminating seems imbued by the energy of the sun. A bright yellow to light our way.

A beautiful feeling of weighting is born from the fusion of the two. As if by magic, hope flows from its intense nuances and optimism is reborn from its powerful enduring message.

Two independent colors that merge facing the adversity, which call us to have faith and that convey us a message of peace and security. Encouraging tones that are presented as an impulse not to give up and keep moving forward.
