Each year, color company Pantone selects a Color of the Year inspired by trends in society, culture, travel, and more.
On Wednesday, Pantone announced its Color of the Year for 2020, which is Classic Blue, “a timeless and enduring blue” that’s “suggestive of the sky at dusk,” according to the Pantone website. Turns out, the simple color – a rich, dark blue – is a favorite of many interior designers for its versatility.
