10 Jan Radiant Orchid
Pantone, the self-proclaimed “global color authority”, announces a new color of the year every January. Previous colors have included emerald, tangerine and honeysuckle. The 2014 color of the year is radiant orchid which is basically purple to most eyes but here is what Pantone has to say about their color pick:
“Radiant Orchid blooms with confidence and magical warmth that intrigues the eye and sparks the imagination. It is an expressive, creative and embracing purple—one that draws you in with its beguiling charm. A captivating harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid emanates great joy, love and health.”
