Pantone recently unveiled its pick for color of the year, trendcasting that the color of choice will be turquoise. Specifically Pantone 15-5519 Turquoise, it’s a bright, tropical hue reminiscent of Tiffany blue that combines “the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green,” according to a Pantone-issued press release. “Turquoise evokes thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a languorous, effective escape from the everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of well being.”
Bring some ocean color into your home with wall paint, by either painting an entire room in a soft turquoise or go for one high-impact wall. While vintage-style turquoise appliances can be a cool choice for the kitchen, also consider the color for tiles in a tropical-inspired bathroom. If the color is too bright for your taste, consider small accessories, such as pillows, vases, or towels, to make a neutral-toned room pop.
