Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2022 in Magic Flowers
At the beginning of each year, Pantone selects a shade from its existing catalogue which it predicts to be especially popular in the year ahead. However, for the first time in Pantone’s Colour of the Year history an entirely new colour, named Very Peri, was created for 2022.
Let’s take a look at why Pantone created this shade and how you can incorporate it in your home.
Pantone Colour of the Year 2022: Very Peri
Fearlessly futuristic yet familiar, PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri is a carefully curated blend of the ‘faithfulness and constancy of blue with the energy and excitement of red’.
The dynamic lilac shade is designed to symbolise the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition period the world is going through, drawing inspiration from modern life in both the digital and physical worlds.
Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of The Pantone Colour Institute explains, “As we move into a world of unprecedented change, the selection of PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri brings a novel perspective and vision of the trusted and beloved blue colour family, encompassing the qualities of the blues, yet at the same time with its violet red undertone, PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri displays a spritely, joyous attitude and dynamic presence that encourages courageous creativity and imaginative expressions”.
Magic Flower Arrangements to Match Pantone’s Colour of the Year
Now that you know the thought process behind PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri, you might want to consider adding this colour to your home. Here are a few preserved flower arrangements and bouquets with tones to match or complement it.
Cairngorms Bouquet
For our Cairngorms Foliage Bouquet, we’ve playfully intermingled dried daisies with sprigs or dried lavender and preserved purple gypsophila and set them against a rich green foliage backdrop.
The ideal option for someone who wants to subtly incorporate tones of this 2022’s colour of the year into your home.
Provence Arrangement
With Premium Lilac Magic Roses nestled between lush green eucalyptus, white pom pom heads and delicate gypsophila, this arrangement is classic with a fresh and fun twist.
Our Provence Preserved Flower Arrangement not only complements 2022’s selected shade perfectly but also encompasses the sentiments behind Pantone’s choice for Colour of the Year. We feel the non-traditional lilac-coloured Magic Roses in particular symbolise the tradition period we’re going through perfectly.
Preserved Lavender Sprigs
If you prefer to keep your floral decorations dainty and minimalist, a bunch of Preserved Lavender Sprigs is perfect for you.
Although they can be cut down in size, each sprig is around 30cm long which means they look beautiful showcased elegantly in tall vases. Alternatively, you could add a few sprigs to a preserved bouquet you already have on display in your home for a fresh twist.
