Purple may not have graced our homes much since the psychedelic era of the 1970s, but all is set to change this year.
That is, at least, if we decide to follow Pantone’s recommendation. The world’s leading colour trend forecaster has controversially selected Very Peri, a shade inspired by the deep violet blue of the periwinkle flower, as the colour of 2022.
It may seem like an odd choice when we’re still embracing muted tones and understated interiors.
But Pantone’s annual colour choices wield huge influence with fabric and paint manufacturers and also among interior designers keen to deliver the latest looks.
