Whether its deciding your outfit, interiors, makeup or gadgets, a very crucial factor to land upon the final product is which color to go for. There is always a color that is visible the most in different arenas in a certain time frame. It is not merely a matter of co-incidence but it happens because each year a color is selected globally to be the trend for all the industries by a color institute.

The colour that will rule 2020 is Classic Blue, Pantone color of the year.

We are living in a time that requires trust and faith. It is this kind of constancy and confidence that is expressed by 19-4052 Classic Blue, a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on. Classic Blue encourages us to look beyond the obvious to expand our thinking; challenging us to think more deeply, increase our perspective and open the flow of communication, said Leatrice Eiseman, the Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. The unit that decides the various color trends for the year is 'The Pantone Color Institute'. Its job is to highlight the top seasonal runway colors, the global color trends as well as the Pantone colour of the year. For many years the Pantone color has been the major factor in deciding the manufacturing of products as well as customer preferences in a plethora of industries including fashion, home furnishings, and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design.

The selection process requires detailed trend analysis. The final decision of which color to finalize, takes into account numerous factors thoughtfully discussed by the experts at the institute. The factors can be the various art installations and collections by artists, the entertainment industry, films, fashion, design, socio-economic conditions. New technologies coming in, new materials, inventions can also derive the decision.   Classic Blue, a color that has had an all time presence. The passage of time or the change in trends and preferences has never affected the likability the color has. It can be termed as the universal favourite. In its simplicity, Classic Blue is elegant and graceful.

The sight of the color has a very soothing and calm effect on our minds. You tend to be more relaxed and peaceful in the presence of blue. It adds to the concentration power and aids in re-centering our thoughts. Blue symbolizes the desire of the generation for a stable and reliable foundation to build upon as we enter into a new era.
