Inspired By Nature: Pantone 2017 Color of the Year

Each year the Pantone Color Institute declares a color of the year that ultimately influences trends in all facets of design; including architecture, interior design, graphic design, and fashion. This year they chose Greenery which is shade #15-0343 in the Pantone color spectrum.

A symbol for fresh, new beginnings it also has a feeling that reflects the mindfulness of healthier food resolutions, growing vegetarian trends, and an appreciation for the outdoors.

Here are some ways the 2017 Color of the Year can be incorporated into spaces within your home:

The vivid color of Greenery is perfect for adding a punch of color to the exterior of the home, like painting your doors.

An accent wall can immediately brighten interiors and plays beautifully with muted furniture.

For a smaller commitment to the color, buy a few accent pillows and throws while indulging in lots of fresh flowers and greenery in vases.

Bringing Greenery into your Kitchen can be done in many ways: rugs, table runners, accent pieces, and chairs.

Don’t be afraid to mix other colors! There are a myriad of ways to use Greenery. Visit Pantone for color pairing suggestions and inspiration.
