Pantone Lights up 2021

We’ve seen the first glimpse of sunshine in 2021 as Pantone announces Illuminating yellow as the Color of the Year 2021! Yellow signifies strength and hopefulness, something we can all use a little more of as we round out 2020 and move forward into a new year.

In the announcement, Illuminating yellow is paired with Ultimate Gray, a set made to show how two contrasting elements can support and strengthen each other.

“The union of an enduring Ultimate Gray with the vibrant yellow Illuminating expresses a message of positivity supported by fortitude. Practical and rock-solid, but at the same time warming and optimistic, this is a color combination that gives us resilience and hope. We need to feel encouraged and uplifted; this is essential to the human spirit.”

--Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute

And, not to toot our own horn or anything, but doesn’t that yellow look an awful lot like Inkbrite yellow (check out our logo above)? It looks like Inkbrite’s starting 2021 right on trend!
