Pantone Colors of the Year & Your Flooring

The last couple of years we’ve shared suggestions for incorporating the Pantone Color of the Year alongside your floors. This year, Pantone did something different by blending two shades – Rose Quartz and Serenity – as their Color of the Year.

About Pantone Colors of the Year

As Pantone Color Institute’s Executive Director (Leatrice Eiseman) explains, "Joined together, Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace."

Who doesn’t want a soothing sense of order and peace throughout their home? The great news is Rose Quartz and Serenity are nice complements to various shades of flooring. In the photo above, for example, you can see how Lauzon's Travertine Hard Maple naturally fits with a suggested palette of Pantone colors. And here’s another example of Mirage's Maple Sandstone seamlessly blending with another of palette of Pantone colors.

Pantone Colors & Your Flooring

Looking for ideas to incorporate these Pantone colors with your floors? Here are a few suggestions:

1. If you really like flooring available in a complementary hue to (like the examples above), select that shade and then decorate the space with various Rose Quartz and Serenity accessories.
2. Depending on the room and the material you use, you could select floors in Rose Quartz and Serenity shades. Why not use marmoleum to make a fun design in a playroom, bedroom or bathroom?
3. Opt for an area rug that incorporates both colors, like the one on this website or the one on this site. Or, pick an area rug that features shades included in Pantone’s various palettes and then accessorize with Rose Quartz and Serenity paint, furniture, throw pillows and more.
