Who is Pantone?

Pantone’s 2016 Color of Year

Pantone the global authority recently announced 2016’s color of the year – Rose Quartz (Pantone 13-1520) and Serenity (Pantone 15-3919), the blending of two shades as a softer take on color.

For the first time Pantone introduces two shades, Rose Quartz and Serenity as the PANTONE Color of the Year 2016. Rose Quartz is a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. Serenity is weightless and airy, like the expanse of the blue sky above us, bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times.

Joined together Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.  – Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute
