2020 PANTONE COLOR OF THE YEAR

Updated: Jul 13, 2020



Last week Pantone announced the 2020 Color of the Year, Classic Blue and we are so excited about it. The Color of the Year plays a huge part in influencing fashion, home decor, and graphic design trends throughout the year and we always try to find items in our inventory that are similar.


What do you feel when you see the color Classic Blue?


Tranquility? Support? Inspiration? Rest? Reflection? Trust? Peace?


These are just a few of the words Pantone uses to describe the Color of the Year. With 2020 begins a new decade. It's time for change and a time to reflect on the past.


"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

We decided to take inspiration from Classic Blue and put together 3 looks in our Design Studio to show just how versatile of a color it is.



Look 1 was blue on blue, we wanted a subdued monochromatic feel. Look 2 is blue on white, we were inspired by the colors on Santorini. Look 3 is peach on blue, we wanted a bold look using a contrasting color.


Which look is your favorite?

We used just a few of the many Classic Blue inspired linens that we have available. Below are a few more of our favorites:
