Why DockATot Loves Pantone's Colour Of The Year 2021

Why DockATot Loves Pantone's Colour Of The Year 2021

Posted by Kenny Dill on

Pantone have pushed the boat out for 2021 and named not one, but two colours of the year! ‘Illuminating’, a cheerful shade of yellow, and ‘Ultimate Gray’ have been chosen as Pantone’s 2021 colours of the year to communicate a message of strength and hope.

In choosing this combination of colours, Pantone aim to reflect the current global mood. It’s "a message of happiness supported by fortitude’, explains Leatrice Eismann, Executive Director of Pantone, ‘The combination... is aspirational and gives us hope. We need to feel that everything is going to get brighter – this is essential to the human spirit.”


The warm vivacity of ‘Illuminating’ brings feelings of optimism and positivity, whilst ‘Ultimate Gray’ is symbolic of solid dependability - like pebbles on the beach withstanding the test of time. It quietly assures, encouraging feelings of steadiness and resilience. 

Pantone describe the choice as:

"...two independent colours that highlight how different elements come together to support one another... Practical and rock solid but at the same time warming and optimistic, the union... is one of strength and positivity. It is a story of colour that encapsulates deeper feelings of thoughtfulness with the promise of something sunny and friendly."
