Meet Living Coral, a colour that symbolises hopefulness and optimism

2019 is set to be a happy one, with Pantone announcing, "Living Coral," as its Colour of the Year. 

"Symbolizing our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits, Living Coral embodies our desire for playful expression," the company explained of its choice.

An animating and life-affirming shade of orange with a golden undertone, Living Coral provides us with "comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment"—similar to how coral reefs provide shelter and protection to their ocean habitats.

Expect to see Living Coral colour all areas of your life, with it predicted to be a leading colour trend in all style sectors, from interiors to beauty and fashion.
