Interior Design Trends and The Pantone Color of the Year 2022

As we leave 2021 behind and ring in the New Year, it’s time to also call up the latest from the folks at Pantone with their annual declaration of the Color of the Year 2022.

While many other paint brands proclaimed various shades of green as their color of the year, extolling its versatility, warmth, and feelings of growth, Pantone has selected a shade of periwinkle, Very Peri. They have also merged next year’s choice into four pre-loaded, mood-focused palettes with color combinations that integrate and complement Very Peri.

“Very Peri was selected for its blending of the faithfulness and constancy of classic blue with the energy and excitement of red. ‘As we move into a world of unprecedented change, the selection of Pantone 17-3938 Very Peri brings a novel perspective and vision of the trusted and beloved blue color family,’ Pantone Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman said. ‘Encompassing the qualities of the blues, yet at the same time possessing a violet-red undertone, Very Peri displays a spritely, joyous attitude and dynamic presence that encourages courageous creativity and imaginative expression’.” (Houzz.com)
