Pantone color of the year 2017- greenery

The new year brings new ideas, new decisions, and new resolutions to the forefront. It reviews the past year of design with the good, the great, and the please let's let that one go! It brings things like new technology with the CES show and of course, the color of the year from Pantone.

Greenery is hopeful, growth-inspiring, and peaceful. Concepts that we could all use. It is also a reminder of spring in these months of winter, like seed catalogs!

This year's color of the year that every eco-friendly desigher can get behind! 

To quote Pantone themselves, "Greenery is a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew." It looks great with everything from navy to orange to rich pink. Crisp green has been on the color scene for a couple of years in small furnishings. I am hoping to see it more in a commitment like paint colors.
