8 trending colour palettes: the 2018 Pantone forecast
The latest colour palettes are intent on breaking free from traditional thinking and es-caping the ordinary, but they have no fear of sober tones and neutrals, preferring in-stead to reinvent them. The Pantone Color Institute’s 2018 colour forecast, pub-lished in its PANTONEVIEW Home + Interiors annual re-port, speaks volumes about the need for a new approach to the subject of colour, even within the four walls of our homes. Delicate virtuoso performanc-
es and mix&match effects are no longer the sole preserve of top-end commercial and con-tract-furnished environments. Now, they’re charging into the residential world, and dusting down even the boldest tones, inspired – depending on style and atmosphere – by the 30 multi-coloured years span-ning the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s. Sticking to a strict diet of chro-motherapy, the most obser-vant design is gradually dis-tancing itself from the idea of colour dominated by form,
and eschewing its use as a mere dressing for surfaces and complements. Instead, it’s exploring the full potential of colour and deploying it as a defining ingredient capable of playing a leading role in the aesthetic output of a habitat.
An eclectic mix of vibrant colours, ready to quench modern consumers’ thirst for the new, and yield benefits for the environment and its inhab-itants, has a warm welcome in store for design in general and interior decoration in particu-
lar next year. The far-sighted trendsetters at Pantone had already start-ed down this road when they chose “healing” Rose Quartz and Serenity as joint winners of colour of the year 2016, fol-lowed in 2017 by Greenery, a refreshing, revitalising tone de-noting universal rebirth.
As we await the selection of next year’s title-winning colour, let’s take a stroll through the 8 most appealing and on-trend colour ranges of 2018.

PALETTE #1: VERDURE
In the wake of the current “Urban Jungle”, design is still gripped by green. Verdure ranges from foliage greens to berry-infused purples, in an effort to reconcile nature with structure by means of wallpapers, textiles, exotic patterns and, of course, plants.

PALETTE #4: TECH-NIQUE
Indigo and pink, green and purple, even light blue and sand: a triumph of contrasts shapes this techno-inspired palette, which absorbs the highlights of “augmented” materials, ventures into the domain of optical illusion and explores the multifarious transparencies of glass and polycarbonate.
