The Executive Director of the Institute Leatrice Eiseman shared a few of her thoughts when it comes to two possible colour trends for next year, one of them being metallics, “Metallics we know are classic. But they have really moved over into neutrals,” and the other iridescence, “the human eye can absolutely not avoid”, meaning that all objects that have shimmering and translucent qualities to them are “intrinsic to human development”

It is expected to see more vibrant colours rather than pastels ones, as explained by Eiseman, “Intense colors seem to be a natural application of our intense lifestyles and thought processes these days.” In 2016, the predilect colours that were chosen were serenity and rose quartz, even though, these brighter colours aren’t expected to be in the lead front, they won’t be entirely out of the picture as well.

Nevertheless, Pantone has unveiled eight palettes that are bound to be a success in any home interior for the upcoming year, and they are the following:

⇒ DISCRETION: As the name indicates, this one will be much more different from the previous one. It is characterised by a more subtle touch with desaturated hues, like Elderberry and Hawthorne Rose. Eiseman added that “Pink has developed more power than ever before.”
