Very Peri Is Pantone’s Color of the Year 2022
Very Peri is the vibrant blue-purple that has been heralded as Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2022. Not only is Very Peri the “it” color for the next year, but it’s also a completely new shade created by Pantone. The creation of a color for Color of the Year is a first in Pantone’s history.
Pantone has created Very Peri for 2020 because, “We are living in transformative times,” and, “Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through. As we emerge from an intense period of isolation, our notions and standards are changing, and our physical and digital lives have merged in new ways.”
Very Peri is a color that encourages inventiveness and creativity. Pantone describes it as having a “dynamic periwinkle blue hue with a vivifying violet red undertone.” It’s been described as the warmest of the blue hues, which makes it the happiest and opens us up to embracing new possibilities and visions for the post-COVID world.
