Color is back! Pantone recently announced the shade Ultra Violet as the color of the year. A rich, vibrant color that Pantone says, “lights the way to what is yet to come.” We think color is here to stay and we’ll be showcasing how you can incorporate color into your home or work place. Here’s our first color inspiration, Ultra Violet.
“The Pantone Color of the Year has come to mean so much more than ‘what’s trending’ in the world of design; it’s truly a reflection of what’s needed in our world today.” – says Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute.
If Ultra Violet is a bit bold for you try it in a small dose or a few shades lighter. Many shy away from purple thinking it will be overpowering but when balanced with the right decor it can create a relaxing environment. On the other spectrum, you may want to make a bold statement with a large furniture piece or stunning drapery showcasing a vibrant purple. With many varying shades of violets you’re bound to find one that will enhance your space. We’ve collected a few of our favorite shades of purple to show how diversely beautiful purple can be.
One of our favorite unexpected pops of color is this stunning AGA range. Proof that color can be used in all facets of your home. Choosing this lovely heather shade for the range instantly makes it the centerpiece of the kitchen. The range itself is a beautiful addition and the unexpected color really lets it shine against a fresh, white kitchen.
