Pantones Colour for 2020 – Classic Blue
Stop the press! Without further ado it’s arrived… Pantones Colour for 2020 – Classic Blue has landed. There has been a huge buzz amongst interior designers, influencers and the fashion pack. Let’s break down the Pantones 2020 colour of the year Classic Blue.
Pantones Classic Blue
Let’s break down Pantones “Classic Blue”. I have to say that it is somewhat of a switch up from 2019’s choice of Living Coral and 2018’s Ultra Violet. Both previous tones are extremely playful and flirtatious. This years choice has a more grown up feel, the name hits the nail on the head “classic”. To explain the shade our interpretation is that it is somewhere in the middle of a cobalt blue and navy.
Why the Blue Classic Hue?
This colour has been selected with a diplomatic voice and a nod to many of the frustrations surrounding our planet. With the incredibly vexing environment issues and political frustrations that are currently engulfing our planet this is no mean feat. A new decade requires a tone of gentility, Pantones colour is natural and organic, it hits all of these notes. It is temperate, dependable and calming.

Blue goes with so much, and nothing is better than having a bit of a freshen up on ones walls for New Year… New Year, new you! There’s something really quite cathartic about freshening up a tired looking wall. From a stylistic perspective there’s been a surge in bold, big colours in the paint world. Our top tip for Pantone 2020 paint is from Farrow and Ball in colour “Pitch”, and Dulux Atlantic Blue would be a perfect pick to honour Pantone 2020 Classic Blue. We love the pairing between the Stourhead in the vivacious Portland Satsuma velvet.
