Pantone Greenery color of year 2017

Pantone Greenery was declared the color of the year 2017. Immediatly the web flooded with advice on how to wear, buy, use, and decorate with the verdant hue.

Pantone Greenery is a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring.

Greenery is nature’s neutral. The more submerged people are in modern life, the greater their innate craving to immerse themselves in the physical beauty and inherent unity of the natural world. In fact Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, in an interview with The New York Times explained “This is the color of hopefulness. It speaks to what we call the ‘re’ words: regenerate, refresh, revitalize, renew.”

Nature’s neutral, PANTONE Greenery is a versatile ‘trans-seasonal’ shade that lends itself to many colour combinations.

Greenery is paired with neutrals, bright, deeper shades, pastels, metallic and even the enduring presence of PANTONE Color of the Year 2016, Rose Quartz and Serenity.
