The Pantone color of 2019
Pantone describes the color 16-1546 Living Coral as an ‘animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone, that energizes and enlivens, with a softer edge. The color embraces us with warmth and nourishment, to provide comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment.’
According to Pantone, Living Coral is a reaction to the digital technology and social media that are increasingly embedding into daily life. As a result, we are seeking authentic and immersive experiences, that enable connection and intimacy. “Sociable and spirited, the engaging nature of Living Coral welcomes and encourages lighthearted activity. Symbolizing our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits, Living Coral embodies our desire for playful expression.”
