While 2022 marks the first time Pantone chose a newly created color, 2021 was the first time the company chose an "achromatic" hue to represent the year ahead: "Ultimate Gray." But wait ...
2021: Ultimate Gray Pantone 17-5104 and Illuminating Pantone 13-0647 A duo of colors, Ultimate Gray Pantone 17-5104 and Illuminating Pantone 13-0647, were selected for Pantone's 2021 COTY.
This new neutral works across so many event styles, from modern to rustic. Allow us to introduce the Pantone Color of the Year 2025, Mocha Mousse, a brown-gray shade with some serious depth.
