The Pantone colour of 2018 has been announced and it’s all about fresh, elegant decadence!
The deep purple hue is called Ultra Violet, and believe us when we say it will be popping up in every aspect of design - including your wedding. According to Pantone, ultra violet "communicates originality, ingenuity and visionary thinking."
WE LOVE:
"Complex and contemplative, Ultra Violet suggests the mysteries of the cosmos, the intrigue of what lies ahead, and the discoveries beyond where we are now. The vast and limitless night sky is symbolic of what is possible and continues to inspire the desire to pursue a world beyond our own."
PANTONE SAYS:
"Enigmatic purples have also long been symbolic of counterculture, unconventionality, and artistic brilliance. Musical icons Prince, David Bowie, and Jimi Hendrix brought shades of Ultra Violet to the forefront of western pop culture as personal expressions of individuality. Nuanced and full of emotion, the depth of PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet symbolizes experimentation and non-conformity, spurring individuals to imagine their unique mark on the world, and push boundaries through creative outlets."
