The Pantone color of the year has recently been announced and it combines two independent colors that bring two different attributes that blend so seamlessly.

The Pantone 13-0647 Illuminating Yellow and Pantone 17-5104 Ultimate Gray are the chosen colors of the year for 2021. The positivity of the illuminating and the strength of the gray bring out a perfect combination in any interior.

Pair these in a dining room or living area and you will feel right at home – ready to face any challenges with the courage like the gray and an enthusiasm radiated by the illuminating. The place will look warm because of the yellow while the ultimate gray gives a solid finish.

Many natural elements come in the gray color. Think of the pebbles on the beach. They are just so beautiful and strong. This is what the ultimate gray color brings out. It is a sign of resilience and a look at this color gives a feeling of resilience, strength and composure.

On the other hand, the yellow pops giving a room warm feeling like that of the sun. It cheers you up and leaves you feeling happy and bright.

In the home, a combination of the 2021 Pantone colors will work really well blending with existing decor. You may paint your walls in a combination of both colors matched as you wish. Gray exteriors will give your home a long-lasting look while a yellow door is welcoming.

On a kitchen backsplash, install gray tiles with a pop of illuminating for a solid yet thrilling finish. This color combination will also work perfectly on linen, curtains and other accessories. Having the gray in the background and a pop of yellow to lighten things up is perfect.

A gray sofa will look perfect with illuminating throw pillows. You may even have your coffee table painted in yellow standing on a gray carpet to make the room warm and comfortable.

The Pantone colors this year are really perfect for each other. The gray and yellow blend so well. They can be used in any room. From runways to home décor to packaging and advertising this combo of resilience and warmth is just the right balance.
