The most renowned institution in graphic technologies has elected the Pantone of the year 2022. It is the Very Peri: a shade of blue with a marked violet undertone, closely reminiscent of lavender.

The time has come to strike the balance of the past 12 months, predicting the Pantone of the year 2022. The very famous American company, reference point in graphics, didn’t keep us waiting. Very Peri periwinkle has indeed been chosen as Pantone of the year 2022.

We are back to the shades of blue, which had already made a comeback a couple of years ago. As a matter of fact blue indicates positivity, reaction and innovation. For the first time, however, Pantone has added a touch of personalization. The Very Peri periwinkle, as it turns out, is the result of the addition of a red undertone that makes it more purplish. Never before had the color of the year actually been a custom Pantone.

As per tradition, we quote the words of the Pantone CEO on the reasons for the choice. “We are moving in a context of unprecedented changes. The choice of the PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri is based on the reliability of blue, reinforcing it with a red-violet undertone.” So spoke Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. “The PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri displays a lively, joyful attitude. It symbolizes a dynamic presence that stimulates courageous creativity and imaginative expression.”
