The annual colour, which is announced each December, is chosen based on “what is taking place in our global culture at a moment in time”. With a new decade upons us, 2020 brings a chance to start anew, to return to our roots, so Pantone decided to brings us the deep blue hue of Classic Blue 19-4052. With this shade, new challenges. What is so amazing about it? It ressonates with everyone.
“It’s a reassuring blue, full of calm and confidence. It builds connection.”
-Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute
Pressman says that Classic Blue may be emblematic of heritage, but highly contemporary, which is why it looks so good, no matter where it’s introduced. Whether you see it in a sweatshirt or armchair, it will always look modern with a touch of nostalgia.
“We’re returning to classics because everything has been chaotic in the world,” Pressman said. “It’s not about doing it like you did in the past, but reinterpreting it.”
Suggestive of the sky at dusk, the reassuring qualities of the thought-provoking PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue highlight our desire for a dependable and stable foundation on which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era. In this bar, you’ll find a contrast between this deep and rich color and the intriguing hues of gold of Kelly Bar Chair, the best piece that brings the modern and the heritage together.
With blue, any material can come to life, whether we’re talking fashion or interior design. If you pick leather, velvet or any other, you’ll find that Classic Blue gives it an extra kick. It’s a reassuring, familiar, but thought-provoking color that can elevate any project. With Sophia Sofa in Classic Blue and stunning velvet, you’ll find it’s the perfect color for 2020.
Dean Armchair presents to you Classic Blue in its most deep and rich form, stamped in a leather textile that is simply to die for. This 2020, with a new decade just starting, it’s time to get inspired in the basics and take them to a whole other level of luxury, elegance and sophistication.
Pressman said that Pantone felt that the color highlighted dependability, trustworthiness, credibility, and constancy, the traits you’ll find in the best seller that is Collins Dining Chair, the perfect dining chair in stunning velvet. If you want to bring Classic Blue into your home in the most charming way, this is the way to go!
