Happy Blue Year: 2008 Color Trends
According to color supplier Pantone®, the color of 2008 is Blue
Iris. The blue is a radiant, calming hue, dark, but not dark enough to
be in the realm of navy, and is a sharp contrast to the 2007 choice,
Chili Pepper Red. "From a color forecasting
perspective, we have chosen PANTONE 18-3943 Blue Iris as the color of
the year, as it best represents color direction in 2008 for fashion,
cosmetics and home products," explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive
director of the Pantone Color Institute®. "As a reflection of the
times, Blue Iris brings together the dependable aspect of blue,
underscored by a strong, soul-searching purple cast."
Is Blue The New Green?
Other
professionals disagree with Pantone's choice. Margaret Walsh, director
of the Color Association, says her color of 2008 is bamboo. She
believes the strong green, hinted with yellow, represents the changing
social desire to be more environmentally clean. "My
color for 2008 is bamboo." A yellowed green, chosen from the
association's interior palette, she said, it "represents the stable
green that is most on people's minds." She said it's similar to a hue
called Vineyard, adding: "I feel it just has a power. You know, these
are very insecure times."
