LinenMe’s Waffle Towels Demonstrate the Pantone Color Pick for 2021!

LinenMe’s Waffle Towels Demonstrate the Pantone Color Pick for 2021!

Every year Pantone’s trend forecasters compile extensive research to find a color that represents or somehow embodies the design themes for that year. For their Color of the Year 2021 they chose two colors instead of the usual single selection. The chosen tones are Illuminating (a citrus yellow) and Ultimate Gray (a solid mid-gray).

And we were delighted to see that Frankfurt’s leading interiors and design exhibition, Ambiente, featured LinenMe’s graphite grey waffle towels as examples of this year’s Pantone color pick on their blog.

The two chosen colors work on their own but were deliberately selected as a duo. Pantone’s Color Institute Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman explains why: “Together, the solid Ultimate Gray and the radiant Illuminating convey a positive message of inner strength. Practical and rock solid, but at the same time warming and optimistic – this is a colour combination for hope and resilience. Strength and confidence are nourishment for the human soul.”

And as we can all do with some hope, unity and strength in these difficult times, we’re 100% on board with this sentiment.

We know you love to stay on top of interior trends whilst shopping sustainably and mindfully. It’s easy to update your home with these new color trends and stay true to your principles. Buying good quality linen textiles from family-run brands like us at LinenMe means you’re supporting small businesses who are committed to reducing their carbon footprint. But we also love bringing a fresh look and feel into spaces. It’s all about balance. Which fits perfectly with the Pantone Colors of the Year 2021, representing and encouraging harmony!
