Pantone color of 2010

Saturday, February 13, 2010


Apparently we’re not the only ones happy that 2009 is behind us. Now Pantone, the global authority on color (according to them!), has also determined that we need a soothing color to heal us from the ills we suffered last year. Their pick for 2010? Turquoise.

Combining the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green, Turquoise evokes thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a languorous, effective escape from the everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of wellbeing. – Pantone
Pantone predicts this color will be significantly evident in the fashion and home decor trends we see unfold in 2010.

Since Glad That Year Is Over does not appear in the Pantone fan deck, we can look to Turquoise to cure us from our 2009 hangover. And for that year long headache, you could blame Pantone. Their choice for color of 2009? Mimosa!
