Pantone Color Institute has announced that its 2020 Color of the Year is Pantone Classic Blue (Pantone 19-4052). So, a fresh inspirational color for 2020? Well, from a design perspective it’s rather discouraging.

The indigo hue brings to mind both the constant and the classic.

Exactly. Just like a poorly tailored suit of any business consultant on a Thursday afternoon at the airport. Boring, meaningless and spineless.
