Exploring the interconnectedness between color in fashion, art, and design and humankind

In ARISE we explore ways in which design, fashion, art, and other creative forms reflect on the human condition. Color plays a significant role during this journey, speaking to us through memory and constantly influencing our feelings. Deeply colored browns and greens underline our need for roots and a human connection with nature while sumptuous shades of teal and purple, vibrant emeralds and maroons, evoke palettes of bygone eras and centuries past. Designing for neurodiversity we look to dusted and muted hues that calm and balance while pale and vaporized pinks and blues bring a cooling touch to the future.

VIEWPOINT COLOUR reflects current and future market conditions with an approach that aims to balance the informative and insightful with the inspirational and innovative. We carefully analyze consumer behavior, socio-economic developments, cultural trends, and lifestyle; we put color and design into perspective, confirm emerging directions, monitor, and reconfirm maturing ideas to arrive at sound conclusions and color and design strategies for decision-makers in the fields of textiles, fashion, beauty, graphics, architecture, interior and industrial design.

The everlasting search for harmony filters through into every aspect of our lives including our relationships, the work we do, our social connections and the natural environment that surrounds us. Harmony in color unifies all the disparate elements of a product or design and helps ensure the right mood is being set. While the paths to harmony are many, they all center around our desire for balance and unity in our surroundings and the feeling of peace and cohesiveness it engenders. As we continue to redefine our style of living, harmony has taken on greater importance for our physical and spiritual well-being. PANTONE VIEW home + interiors 2025 provides you with directional color and design compositions from eco-inspired greens, carefree blues, earthy browns, and nurturing neutrals to cutting edge brights, utopian pastels, atmospheric purples, and elegant night shades, to help you create the visual interest and synchronized harmonious tone you are seeking.

For Spring/Summer 2025 we take on a new consciousness embodied in symbiotic relationships between humanity, fauna, and the planet, alliances further enabled through our relationship with Generative AI. AI amplifies our ability to tackle complex challenges and imagine a new way of living with the world around us. As we seek refuge and connectiveness in nature, we discover that the most essential things are in fact, the most primal ones.
