Trend Focus: Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2024, Peach Fuzz.

As spring unfolds and pastel hues emerge, one colour stands out: Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2024, Peach Fuzz. With its blushing orange-pink tones, it effortlessly captures the essence of warmth and togetherness, resonating with our desire to feel connected.

Maybe we are drawn to the similarities with our own Kindred orange, or maybe it’s the welcoming glow the colour offers during uncertain times. Either way, Pantone 13-1023 Peach Fuzz goes beyond aesthetics, reflecting a universal longing for kindness and community. 

“In seeking a hue that echoes our innate yearning for closeness and connection, we chose a colour radiant with warmth and modern elegance. A shade that resonates with compassion, offers a tactile embrace, and effortlessly bridges the youthful with the timeless.
