The Pantone Colour of the Year 2022 was announced just before Christmas and for the first time ever, Pantone have created an entirely new colour: Very Peri.

While technically a member of the blue family, Very Peri has violet undertones that create the perfect mishmash of a periwinkle blue and light purple.
Apparently Very Peri was informed by the rise of the metaverse, as well as the impact of coronavirus lockdowns. Grand words indeed!
It is a colour descirebed by Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute, as conveying a “spritely, joyous attitude and dynamic presence that encourages courageous creativity and imaginative expressions”.

Home accessories are the best way to incorporate design trends like the Pantone Color of the Year into your home. Very Peri is a colour that is best used in neutral colour schemes in the form of a cushion, a throw or a lamp.
Here are 10 ideas for adding a bit of Very Peri to your home.

Flax yarns are spun with sustainable wool to create a lived-in, wild and strong weave with a colourful fleck detail. The Blue Iris shade is a pretty colour similar to Very Peri.
