Pantone Color of the Year: Classic Blue

There is a sweet spot where the colors are classic and comfortable, familiar but never boring. This year’s Pantone Color of the Year is a color we’ve all seen countless times but maybe haven’t taken a moment to appreciate: Classic Blue 19-4052.

“PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue [is] a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “A boundless blue evocative of the vast and infinite evening sky, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue encourages us to look beyond the obvious to expand our thinking.”

You probably have some Classic Blue in your home already, but we found local merchants who offer items in this hue to share with you. Add a bold touch of Classic Blue to your style and decor for a vibrant start to Spring.
