Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2024.
Peach Fuzz. Well, strike me pink and call me posh – it's like Pantone's telling us to wrap ourselves in a cozy hug of velvety peachiness. This shade isn't just about looking like a perfectly ripe fruit; it's about embracing our inner sloth and telling the world, "Hold on, I need a moment. Let me breathe”.
Pantone's choice of Peach Fuzz resonates as a tender embrace for our minds, bodies, and souls. I may be getting all the cozy feels becuase I am very good at hibernating during winter months and it seems like Pantone is giving me a gentle nudge into the new year, my eyes adjusting to the softness which brings light into dark days.
This velvety, gentle peach tone captures a desire to nurture ourselves in a world that often feels fast-paced and demanding. Peach Fuzz, says “stop trying to find the peach emoji and put away your phone”. Its warm undertones emanate a comforting spirit, encouraging us to reflect on the importance of tending to our well-being in a society that glorifies productivity. It’s a reminder that life is not a race – it's more of a leisurely stroll with the occasional pitstop for biscuits.
Well done Pantone.
Love your choice, especially when 2024’s Peach Fuzz is paired with 2020’s Classic Blue. Beautiful.
