You may have already heard this name... Founded in the early 60s, PANTONE® is known worldwide for its color system, widely used in countless productions, whether design, decoration, fashion... The Pantone system emerged along with the need of a standard color management language, which would avoid changes and errors in printing processes.
Despite the brand's recognition, it was only in 2000 that it began what has become a tradition for designers: choosing the color of the year. This process takes place through observations and research on trends, cultural presence, political and social changes and movements, new technologies and also global events.
The colors chosen by the brand also seek to bring reflections on the moment and changes occurring in the world. For 2021, this would be no different. But it was, in a way, innovative. Because Pantone chose two colors: PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray and PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating yellow. The combination, according to the brand, represents resilience, strength, optimism and positivity. Characteristics that we certainly need in 2021, after a year as intense as this one.
O PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray includes solid and reliable elements. Already the PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating It is a bright and cheerful tone with feelings of vivacity.
