Recently, the global color consultancy institute—Pantone has released a fashion color trend report on New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2022 that features the top ten standout colors for the year as well as current takes on five ‘Core Classics’ that are not only timeless but also versatile enough to use in any season.

Promoting new sentiments of simplicity, clarity, and comfort, Pantone’s range of classic, seasonless tones whose ‘versatility express longevity’ is the perfect inspirational guide for interior color schemes that will stay fashionable for years to come. So, which shades made the cut? Here’s a rundown on Pantone’s Spring/Summer 2022 Core Classics and how to incorporate them into your home interior design.

1. Perfectly Pale A muted sandy beige— Perfectly Pale is a soothing reminiscent of a warm and inviting beach. Decorate your interior with this ever popular neutral to bring in a comforting touch of warmth and radiance to your dull and gloomy space. Drape faux linen beige curtains on your living room or bedroom windows or opt for beige faux linens to outfit your dining and kitchen tables exuding a welcoming aura. Moreover, incorporate pale driftwood candle holders and natural sand decorations into your home interior decor to satisfy your craving for a calm and tranquil ambiance that is high style yet classic to the core!

2. Northern Droplet Northern Droplet— a subtle shade of gray that evokes feelings of tranquility has also made an appearance on the Pantone color of the year 2022 list. This enticing neutral color with a gray undertone has so much potential and is easy to work with. Embrace it as your interior paint color or decorate your home windows with light gray organza curtains to outlast interior color trends. Include this shade in every interior design element and add appealing accents such as gray marbled ceramic vase planter pots, concrete plant pots, and gray floral bouquets to your decor emanating a sense of calm and positivity.

3. Snow White Since no list of classic, timeless colors is complete without a shade of white dominating the charts, Pantone has included a minimalist Snow White hue into their Core Classics. This clean, clarifying, and pure white shade cuts through the noise and ushers a sense of tranquility amidst the chaos. Address your desires for simplicity and serenity by painting the walls white or opt for white peel & stick wall tiles for an added textural element. Adorn the windows with pristine white curtains and spread a faux white fur rug on the floor adding a sophisticated yet alluring charm to your interior decoration. You can also swap out your chairs with white folding chairs and use metal stands topped with white plexiglass sheets as accent tables to invoke a contemporary touch.

4. Basil Green has become one of the popular tones for post-pandemic interior design makeovers. And for good reason as this modern classic hue promotes organic health, growth and wellbeing. Fortunately enough, a dusty shade of green— Basil has made it to the list of Pantone’s chosen five. Decorating your home interior with a sweet and savory Basil green that is imbued with restorative and emotional longevity uplifts the ambiance and conveys an optimistic sense of fun and purpose. Layer your interior design with an abundance of greenery using a gorgeous mix of faux vines, moss, and foliage to encourage creativity as well as pragmatism.

5. Poppy Seed Pantone concludes the list with Poppy seed— a second shade of gray but with a much deeper aesthetic that reflects ageless familiarity and instills confidence. This nuanced tone is free from the constricting boundaries of seasons and conveys a message of power and strength.  Introduce this deep, almost charcoal gray tint into your interior design with curtains, couch covers, table linens, tabletop decor accessories and wall accents to evince a comforting, timeless familiarity.

As predicted by Pantone, these classic hues whose versatility transcends the changing seasons and allows more freedom of choice will continue to make waves in the interior design industry for countless years.  So, which Pantone color of the year 2022 are you going to pick to spruce up your home interior design?
