Pantone and the global authority on color (yes, there actually is such an organization!), today announced PANTONE® 15-5519 Turquoise, an inviting, luminous hue, as the color of the year for 2010.
“In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of color,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “It is believed to be a protective talisman, a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association studies, we also find that Turquoise represents an escape to many – taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy.”
Turquoise adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, complements reds and pinks, creates a classic maritime look with deep blues, livens up all other greens, and is especially trend-setting with yellow-greens.
Be sure to watch out for turquoise coloured pieces in our new spring/summer collection!
Here is a small foretaste...
