Pantone Unveils Color of the Year for 2010: PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise
Turquoise Transports Us to an Exciting, Tropical Paradise While Offering a Sense of Protection and Healing in Stressful Times
An
inviting, luminous hue, as the color of the year for 2010. Combining
the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green,
Turquoise evokes thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a
languorous, effective escape from the everyday troubles of the world,
while at the same time restoring our sense of wellbeing...
“In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the
world of color,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the
Pantone Color Institute®. “It is believed to be a protective talisman,
a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth,
inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association
studies, we also find that Turquoise represents an escape to many –
taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even
if only a fantasy.”
In fashion, Turquoise makes a statement that can look elegant and
dressy in fine silk and gemstones, or casual and fun in cotton and
athletic apparel. Because of its versatility, Turquoise is a great
accent color in jewelry, purses, shoes, hair accessories and even nail
polish for women, and ties, shirts and sportswear for men.
