Wrap yourself up with a soft blanket, and channel those cozy Farmhouse Cottagecore vibes with Pantone’s Color of the Year 2024: Peach Fuzz. A velvety peach tone nestled between pink and orange, this nurturing hue imparts the message of sharing and caring, highlighting our desire for togetherness or enjoying a moment of stillness for ourselves.
PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz Is The Color Of The Year 2024
While 2023’s 18-1740 Viva Magenta championed bold expression and fearlessness and 2021’s 13-0647 Illuminating celebrated vivacity and cheer, 13-1023 Peach Fuzz instead leans into comfort and warmth, reflecting on nostalgia and quiet sophistication.
“In seeking a hue that echoes our innate yearning for closeness and connection, we chose a color radiant with warmth and modern elegance,” Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute states. “It’s a shade that resonates with compassion, offers a tactile embrace, and effortlessly bridges the youthful with the timeless.”
And seeing as it’s also the 25th anniversary of Pantone’s Color Of The Year program, it’s appropriate that Peach Fuzz invites us to imagine a more peaceful future as we get ready to ring in 2024.
