Introducing Pantone’s newly released colour of the year, Classic Blue 19-4052. The annual colour, which is selected and announce each December is chosen based on what is taking place within our global culture at that moment in time.


Calming, elegant and timeless, Pantone mentions that the “Classic Blue brings a sense of peace and tranquillity to the human spirit, offering refuge.”
