How to Decorate With Color Of The Year Pantone Ultra Violet!

Well friends, we are starting off the new year with some stunning color inspo!

I know you all love to learn about color, new color trends and how to use them in your home (isn’t it fun to see what the new decor trends are each year?!!!)…. so I think you’ll really love this post!

The color experts at the Pantone Color Institute have spoken! Pantone’s Ultra Violet is the Color of The Year!

The color gurus have arrived at this color after analyzing and researching design, film, food, travel, sports and entertainment – there is a LOT of thinking and thought that goes into choosing the color of the year!

When I first saw this color, to be honest I didn’t really care for it as an interior color.

But I do love it outdoors in my flower gardens!

This is the exact color of my beautiful irises, delphiniums and annual flowering plants.

We will be seeing a lot of this color in fashion, beauty and decor and I’ll show you how you can add it to your homes in a beautiful way!

This is how Ultra Violet is described:

A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade, PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future.

Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the institute, said: “We are living in a time that requires inventiveness and imagination.

It is this kind of creative inspiration that is indigenous to Pantone 18-3838 ultra violet, a blue-based purple that takes our awareness and potential to a higher level.”

From exploring new technologies and the greater galaxy, to artistic expression and spiritual reflection, intuitive ultra violet lights the way to what is yet to come.”

    I too am not a fan of purple. Olive skin and deep warm colors through out my home just does not lend itself to a purple vibe. I love purples in my garden. The deeper the better. Not sure why there is such a disconnect between what I like for out vs inside. Perhaps the back drop of blue sky. Now I am beating my head against a wall trying to transition from deep warm cozy to the trending minimalist style.
