Pantone just released their 2018 Color of the Year and we are here for it! The dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple pick, known as PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet, is said to communicate "originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future."  
​

​Yes, yes, yes! This is just what 2018 is begging for! I mean, we could all use a little more ingenuity in 2018, am I right? Who's ready to put 2017 to bed? Anybody, anybody? Yeah, us too. While it has been a record year at Amy Puchaty Communications, we can't help but get excited for what's to come in 2018 - visionary thinking and all - and this mystifyingly moody, yet Ultra Violet shade will undoubtably keep us inspired. 

Architectural Digest seems just as intrigued as we are, and quick to show us how to decorate our homes in Ultra Violet with these fabulous tips here. Whether you use it as an accent, soften it with complimentary tones, or embrace a moody theme, more power to you!

Pantone describes the color saying, "Complex and contemplative, Ultra Violet suggests the mysteries of the cosmos, the intrigue of what lies ahead, and the discoveries beyond where we are now. The vast and limitless night sky is symbolic of what is possible and continues to inspire the desire to pursue a world beyond our own." Inspired yet? We sure hope so. Here's wishing everyone a limitless year ahead and . . .

​Cheers to Pantone's majestic Ultra Violet hue!
