The interiors colours that should be on your radar for the year ahead

Each year, Pantone announces its ‘colour of the year’ – or colours – and these are the shades that the colour institute believes reflect the year ahead, summarising the mood for the next 12 months. For 2021, they are Ultimate Gray and Illuminating.

Pantone says:

“As people look for ways to fortify themselves with energy, clarity, and hope to overcome the continuing uncertainty, spirited and emboldening shades satisfy our quest for vitality. PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is a bright and cheerful yellow sparkling with vivacity, a warming yellow shade imbued with solar power.
