New Colour Trend for 2011

In the Design Business there are various organizations on charge of researching new and innovative materials and deciding the new trends for each year. In the world of colour, we have Pantone.

Pantone is a corporation that developed the Pantone Matching System (PMS), a proprietary system that standardizes the colours used in industries such as printing, paint, fabric, and plastics. Pantone travels all over the world to find new colours and textures that can change tones just enough to give things a whole new feeling.

In 2010, the colour winner was the PANTONE 15-5519 Turquois. In 2011, the award goes to…

PANTONE 18-2120 Honeysuckle

“Energizing Honeysuckle Lifts Spirits and Imparts Confidence to Meet Life’s Ongoing Challenges”.



Honeysuckle is a vibrant, energetic, brave new tone of PINK!

It’s a gorgeous colour that can be used in different environments, at home or at work, in your living room, your kitchen or bedroom. Although it is a new trend, this doesn’t mean you should rush out and paint every single wall on your house using honeysuckle. As a general rule of thumb in the Interior Design Industry: Less is More.
