Forty-five years ago, Pantone, Inc. revolutionized the graphic arts industry with the launch of the colorful PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM®, enabling designers and printers to faithfully articulate and reproduce accurate color anywhere in the world. Each color identified with a unique number for precise specification. Pantone achieved global acceptance and quickly became the standard in the printing and graphic arts industries.
As the company moved into more lifestyle-oriented industries, the concept of a numbering system associated with corresponding color names became even more important in communicating the exactness of a color. Today, Pantone LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of X-Rite, Incorporated, has emerged as the vocabulary of color in all aspects of the visual world, providing products, technologies and services for the colorful exploration and expression of creativity.
A symbolic color selection; a color snapshot of what we see taking place in our culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude.
For the first time Pantone introduces two shades, Rose Quartz and Serenity as the PANTONE Color of the Year 2016. Rose Quartz is a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. Serenity is weightless and airy, like the expanse of the blue sky above us, bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times.
