You don’t have to follow the trend of the yearly chosen Pantone colors of course. However, we recommend keeping an eye out for these picks and listening to your impressions, feelings about it. If you like the color, feel free to incorporate it into your home and paint it on your walls. Always choose colors for your walls that match you and your family’s style.
The Pantone color trend
The Pantone Color Institute, the globally known authority on color choice and inspiration, for decades has sought to match colors each year to the global events and sensations of the respective year. There are some who believe that colors are a vital part of our everyday lives. It comes naturally to us, and we don’t spend time pondering about how each day we are affected. Speaking from over a decade of experience, I share my thoughts and recommendations about wall colors and their effects on us in my article, The Effect of Color on Everyday Life.
Each year Pantone announces next year’s color, which serves as a trend setter for the year to come. For 2021, they chose two colors, Ultimate Grey and Illuminating.
The color of 2022: Purple of Pantone Very Peri
The choice for this year landed on shade Pantone 17-3938, named Very Peri. According to the official description, the color embodies the constant tranquility of blue and the vibrant energy of red at the same time.
In summary, the color of 2022 symbolizes and promises a brighter future of calm and joy.
Wall colors for everyday life
One can appreciate the thought behind the chosen color, but in all honesty, I cannot see that this shade will become too popular in the building industry, or that it will become a trend among homeowners as a wall color. But never say never!
I imagine it will have more success in the world of home furnishings, décor, and textiles.
