The color experts at Pantone have selected the color of the year for 2022 and it’s a radical change from the subdued gray tone they favored last year. PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri is a shade of periwinkle blue described as “Encompassing the qualities of the blues, yet at the same time possessing a violet-red undertone.”
Pantone selects the color of the year based on design trends across several industries. That means you can expect to see clothing, furniture, carpet, and accessories offered in this shade.
While many might find it too bold of a choice for upholstery fabric or cabinetry, there are subtler ways to work a bold new color into a room.
Pillows and Throws
Accent pillows and throws are a great way to experiment with bright colors and style trends. You could also switch out your bed sheets or comforter to change up the style in your bedroom.
Pops of color bring new life to neutral furniture and are easy to change out when today’s trend becomes yesterday’s news.
Books
A fun way to introduce color is to scan your book collection. If you have several volumes with similarly colored spines, you can group them together for a real color impact.
I’ll admit, this way of arranging books can be very controversial among book lovers.
Art and Accessories
Inexpensive artwork and accessories are another fun way to try out a new color. Even something as simple as a set of mugs is a fun way to introduce a new color palette.
Posters, vases, glassware, and even candles are easy ways to punch up a room.
Accent Wall
Feeling bold, but not bold enough to paint a whole room in a new shade? There’s always the option of an accent wall to create a fresh focal point for your room.
If you don’t like it, you can always paint over it. Be aware that you’ll need a special primer coat to cover very dark or bright colors.
