Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2020 is Classic Blue,
Classic Blue is a soothing shade reminiscent of the sky at dusk.
Leatrice Eiseman, the Executive Director of Pantone comments Classic Blue remains “a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on… We are living in a time that requires trust and faith. It is this kind of constancy and confidence that is expressed by Pantone 19-4052 Classic Blue.”
Within our range, our Windsor Blue colour option proves to be a customer favourite. Whilst being a very versatile shade it promotes a sense of peacefulness and tranquillity, perfect for the kitchen.
To incorporate the colour of the year into your kitchen design, Windsor Blue looks brilliant when combined with shades of light grey and clean crisp white. The use of these paler colours enables you to include a bold colour into your kitchen, whilst keeping the design bright and airy.
Windsor Blue also works well with natural wood tones, helping to create a warm and inviting feel for those who like to use their kitchen as a social hub.
The colour choice of your door handles and kitchen accessories can also have an impact on the feel of your kitchen. Copper handles can give a very contemporary finish to a classic door style.
Blue is a great way to inject colour into your kitchen design without the worry of the colour dating. If Windsor Blue isn’t quite the right tone for you, try Coastal Blue, Oxford Blue or Inkwell.
