PANTONE COLOR FOR SPRING: DUSK BLUE

Every year The Pantone Institute develops a list of color trends for the upcoming fashion season. These colors transcend into the world of interior design as well. We've all heard that Emerald is Pantone's Color of the Year but what about the other wonderful hues we can expect to see?

First up - DUSK BLUE. This is a muted blue with a calming sense of serenity much like its green counterpart, Grayed Jade. Both of these colors act as the season's newest neutrals, along with Linen of course, to the other vibrant colors in this Spring's spectrum.
