PANTONE Colors That Will Be Trending in 2019

Fashion isn’t the only industry affected by rapidly changing consumer taste. Which is why I scour the trade shows, publications and the internet for insight, updates and forecasts to inform you of color trends and styles for the home.

The authority on all things color recently released a taste of their PANTONEVIEW Home + Interiors Guide for 2019, and among the 72 forecasted hues is a quintet of culinary-inspired shades. 

PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2019 includes eight color palettes specifically chosen for housewares and interior design, and they’re a return to the classics with some crave-worthy hues thrown in.

Two of the eight palettes Pantone highlighted in their announcement are “Cravings” and “Classico,” which come from opposite sides of the color spectrum.

Pantone’s 2018 Color of the Year is Ultraviolet, but how do you use it?

The Cravings palette, according to Pantone, includes allusions to “fetish foods”—yup, you read that right—from rich Cappuccino and Chocolate to spicy Chili Pepper and Cayenne.

“The neutrals of tasty Butterum and Cappuccino serve up a delectable warming presence, while grassy green promises a cooling respite from the heat of the surrounding shades. These exceptional flavors will draw upon memorable sensory experiences to inspire new ones that will be just as pleasing.”

The hues of the  Classico palette skew more elegant with a nod to style fundamentals. This is the palette where “a graceful swan white” and shades of camel pair perfectly with deep teals, gray flannels, burgundy reds, and caviar blacks.

Metallics are still in vogue for the coming year. After all, we can’t help but be drawn to shimmering objects. For 2019 metallic gold is part of the Classico palette.

“With more choices than ever before, it is essential for home furnishings and interiors brands and designers to connect with their consumers and deliver the themes, palettes and colors that engage and stimulate beyond the surface.” – Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute.
