pantone sunrise

Rarely do I get out of the house by sunrise. This morning was an exception, which made the early morning drive worth waking up for.

The beautiful frozen landscape was lit up by the two Pantone Colors for 2016! 

          The pairing of pink and baby blue (Rose Quartz and Serenity) was selected by Pantone color experts to represent the color palette for design inspiration this year. 

Already shown on the runways by Chanel, Prada, and Valentino. Both Fendi and Robert Cavalli have Spring collections for men and women with these two shades. Look for more blue for women, pink for men in the upcoming year in fashion, products, graphics and interior design.

"Coinciding with societal movements toward gender equality and fluidity, the consumers’ increased  comfort with using color as a form of expression which includes a generation that has less concern about being typecast or judged, and an open exchange of digital information that has opened our eyes to different approaches to color usage.”  -Pantone Color Institute
